Hi guys. I've been trying to get debian (woody) installed on my new I8000 and I can't get past the lilo installation. I'm using the compact diskette set and doing a network (http) installation.
Here's how I partitionned my drive (fdisk printout) Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 3890 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks ID System /dev/hda1 * 28 659 5076540 b Win95 FAT32 /dev/hda2 26 27 16065 83 Linux /dev/hda3 660 1322 5325547+ 5 Extended /dev/hda5 660 902 1951866 83 Linux /dev/hda6 903 1291 3124611 83 Linux /dev/hda7 1292 1322 248976 82 Linux swap There's a empty part (for hibernation) at the beginning and the end of it hasn't been formatted yet (it's a 32GB IBM drive). hda2 would be /boot, hda5 would be /, and hda6 would be /usr. Now it won't work to put the boot part in either hda2 or MBR. I tried with and without the hda2 enabled for boot. It won't even create a boot disk. I also tried booting with the rescue disk and giving it "rescue boot=/dev/hda5" but nothing seems to work. Am I doomed to use WinME?? Thanks! Yannick
