The Debian BTS has a web interface. So I'm afraid that reporting this bug already exposes your mail address. I'm alays puzzled by people wanting to hide their mail address. Do you really want to communicate? :-) > I booted boot.img in expert mode, mounted root.img, loaded > net-drivers.img for the SiS900, configured static IP, then downloaded > the rest from a mirror without a problem. > > I chose Standard System and Desktop/Workstation for software. > > However, while the app software was installed to the correct partition > (hda4), the OS was not installed, and grub did not add hda4 as a menu > choice. You don't explain us what you exactly did at the GRUB installation step. Did you leave the default choices or did you something weird like asking to install GRUB on hda4? If you did the latter, then what you see is expected....the grub-installer did not touch the GRUB install on the MBR, which is still the one you see booting. This GRUB points to /dev/hda3 as root...which hasn't been touched by the installer and of course does not offer hda4 as an option. If you leave the *default* GRUB option to install on /dev/hda (ie the MBR), then a new GRUB will be installed on the MBR and it will use /dev/hda4 as root....and will offer the 3 choices, I guess.
