I am installing Debian 3.0r3 on a Panasonic Toughbook CF-27. The install of the base system went fine with both ide-pci and bf2.4 flavours of the kernel, booting from a removable DVD drive.
I am having problems with Dselect, however. I can read the package lists of all the CDs in my set and select the ones i want, but once i actually try and install anything, the system hangs with the following message, repeated continuously... hdc : packet command error : error=0x51 {DriveReady SeekComplete Error} hdc : cdrom_decode_status : error 0x30 hdc : ATAPI reset complete The DVD drive is a Panasonic CF-VDD271 (detected by the kernel as a MATSHITADVD-ROM SR-8171). I am able to mount and read the cds fine, the drive only seems to hang with Dselect and apt. Is anyone able to help?
