I am attempting to install sarge using the new debian installer
according the directions at
http://cvs.debian.org/debian-installer/doc/INSTALLATION-HOWTO?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
Those directions describe how to install sarge using CDs made from a CD
image available at
http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/netinst/
(I used sarge-i386-netinst.iso.)
I have created a CD 3 different ways using that image, but none of the
CDs are bootable. I downloaded the image to my PC. The md5sum is
correct. I used Adaptec Easy CD Creator. The first time I guessed how
to set the parameters in Easy CD Creator. When that CD didn't work, I
found directions on creating a CD under Windows using Easy CD Creator at
http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#record-unix
When that didn't work, I copied the CD image to my Linux machine and
used cdrecord according to the directions also at
http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/#record-unix
In every case, my machine gets to the point where it should boot from
CD, but it goes past it and boots either from fd (if one is installed)
or hd. The machine will boot from a knoppix CD, so the problem is not
in my BIOS settings. Any suggestions?
