I put the firmware for the Centrino 6205, iwlwifi-600g2a-5.ucode, on a SD card and the "load firmware from removable media" feature found it and loaded it just fine. I chose to install on the internal SSD, sda, when I was given the choice (I was also offered the USB install media and the mmcblk0 SD card). The install continued without problems until I got to the "install grub on mbr" stage, at which point I noticed that the installer put grub on mmcblk0 (the SD card) rather than on sda (the internal SSD). I used the "go back" UI to try it again, and it said the same thing (and I didn't find a UI to chose the device). I then used alt-F2 to check /proc/mounts and verified the SD card was not mounted, ejected the card, and tried the grub-install again. This time it installed on sda as expected. The reboot went off without a hitch and the system seems correctly installed. Thanks, -andy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
