It is my understand that the installer will choose the correct kernel for your architecture so it should automatically use the 486 flavour. I don't imagine this will help with your problem, just to clarify. Was that a typo, my Lenny install is using the 2.6.26 kernel? Anything in the BIOS about plug and play, the installer (from your photo) seems to be having trouble with those cards which I guess are mostly ISA cards on a P1? Not surprised that you don't have a keyboard or mouse since it doesn't see any serial interface either. Maybe try stripping out any card that isn't actually needed (for example the NIC) and try the install again. But you've probably already tried that. I note that the output you gave from the "output of lshw (from the System Rescue CD)", shows a 2.6.18 kernel, so it wasn't the Lenny Installer in rescue mode. Since you didn't have trouble with the Etch kernel, I'm not sure that printout is relevant to your trouble with the Lenny kernel. Sorry I can't give you a definitive answer, it is however, an interesting problem. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
