Hi all- I have a new Core 2 Duo Mac Mini, and have been trying to install Debian Lenny on an external FireWire disk via the i386 netinst CD of 01sept2007.
I waded through the older install documentation around the web that seems geared to earlier machines, have what I think is a satisfactory disk partition (ie MBR), but now I'm hung at boot with Grub giving me a "Hard Disk Error". My reading of this error is that it involves a disk geometry problem. I've now checked the geometry prior to installing Grub via netinst and sfdisk reports: Kernel's idea (-g): 28615 64 32 Disk geometry (-G): 3648 255 63 After grub's installed, the "geometry" command: geometry (hd1) returns 3648 255 63, but I still get my "Hard Disk Error" on boot. Any thoughts on how to resolve this? I'd be happy to supply more info; I know I've been brief here... Thanks!
