I tried installing iso-scan and load-iso, and I've managed to install them on
the second "virtual terminal" (for some reason, they won't install when I
execute a shell, it's also somewhat unstable ). When doing this, I get a
"sucessfully mounted testing installer" from my HD partition. It seems like
this works, at least I can check the integrity of the CD.
However, after the check, the image was again unmounted (I got messages from
the CD-detection). Also, I still get the /cdrom/dists//Release problem after
this.
Oh well, I guess I should'nt be trying to coerce the debian installer into
working on unsupported hardware :-)
