Deal All,
I am installing Debian 1.1 from the Infomagic Sept 96 Developers Resource.
My platform is a Compaq Deskpro 2000 5100.
I can read the CD-ROM fine under DOS and copy and untar
gcc
However after booting debian and when trying to install packages I get
lots of
'hdb irq timeout : status = 0x58
hdb ATAPI reset complete'
It still seems to be able to install some/all? packages, but I don't know
how reliable it is and it does take a long time.
Has any one seen this before please?
The information from the compaq diag package is below in case that helps
Thanks
Regards,
Alec
