Package: debian-installer Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Hi, Yesterday I installed an opteron at work. This opteron must run in a 32 bits environnement (binary compatibility issue). I downloaded d-i daily build (03 oct 06) and d-i rc3 with 2.6 kernel. Once the initrd expended at boot time, nothing happened. Hence an Opteron cannot be installed with 2.6 i386 kernels. To fix this issue I installed an image with a 2.4 kernel (i386 d-i rc3 2.4 and sarge installer) and booting went well. I do not know if this issue was known or not. Feel free to downgrade the severity if you belive that it should not be RC. However, I guess that our users might want to install debian 32 bits on an Opteron Cheers, -- Pierre Machard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
