Otherwise, "No Common CD drive found" error. I removed ata_piix and reinserted it after cd-drive detection via modprobe. kernel 2.6.8: manually updated to 2.6.12 as described in Bug#323440. However, no net, thus imported linux-image-2.6.12 from cd. Remounted installation cd properly after importing the image. rebooting: fails as described above. However, I can boot into recovery mode, which was used to collect information. Tried netinstall_cd r31.0a first. But this did not detect ata_piix and failed to find any partitionable media even on manual insertion of ata_piix. Though I needed to choose 'expert' I am not. Any help is appreciated. cheers, dirk -- Dirk Steenpass -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
