 The following installation report was posted to debian-boot, and,
 according to my records, never followed up on. I am putting it in the
 BTS so it will not be lost.

Package: installation-reports
Version: i386-beta2

I used the sarge-i386-netinst.iso, booted with just a carriage return at th=
e=20
boot: prompt.

Very nice! I was unable to boot beta1 on my test system, so this was a VERY=
=20
substantial improvement. The system info is:

Motherboard: Soltek SL-75DRV5; it has a Phoenix BIOS, VIA KT333 and VT8233A=

north/southbridges, a VIA VT1611A audio chip, AMD XP 1700+ CPU,
128Mb DDR RAM.

VIdeo: NVidia RIVA TNT2

NIC: Netgear FA-310TX

2 IDE disks; the install was on /dev/hda5 with swap on /dev/hda7. This disk=

had four installed OSs on it, selected via Red Hat 7.3 GRUB; this was=20
replacing the one on the 5Gb hda5 partition. Ext3 was selected as the=20
filesystem. Packages were selected via tasksel.


Audio, video and networking were all detected and configured correctly. It=

looked almost like a Knoppix install in this regard; I was impressed. I lik=
ed=20
the way the DHCP detection was handled - reasonably short timeout and with =
a=20
good message when a server wasn't found.


I'm sorry that this isn't the correct format for an install report; the=20
INSTALLATION-HOWTO says there should be a file /root/install-report.templat=
e,=20
but I was unable to find this file anywhere on the installed system. I=20
suggest putting a link to an online copy of the file in section 4 of the=20
HOWTO.


Miscellaneous comments:

I second the lilo-installer report #218741. Wow. For folks new to Linux,=20
/dev/hd# is different enough, but those devfs names; Bleah. Without some=20
online help, that format is a non-starter. I'll do the install again and se=
e=20
if the Grub install has the same problem.
