Root Device: IDE Root Size/partition table: root as hda1, swap as hda5, automatically generated Output of lspci and lspci -n: Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot worked: [O] Configure network HW: [O] Config network: [E] Detect CD: [ ] Load installer modules: [O] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [O] Create file systems: [O] Mount partitions: [O] Install base system: [E] Install boot loader: [ ] Reboot: [ ] Comments/Problems: rc3 failed first in manual network configuration, not accepting 10.0.0.1 (nor other addresses from the private classes) as a valid IP. When editing the IP address after the installer complained, neither backspace or left arrow worked at first; however I was able to jump to the beginning of the line with ctrl-a and use delete or ctrl-d to delete text. After inserting some text at the beginning of the line, backspace suddenly started to work. I was able to fix the above problem only manually from the commandline (ifconfig+route). After doing this, everything worked fine until the base system installation, which ultimately failed with "No installable kernel was found in the defined APT sources" (trying to install testing). I proceeded into trying the daily build downloaded on 2005-04-14 and will file a separate installation report on it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
