Bug#380265: Package: installation-reports
Hi,
Thanks for the response. With the images from
http://www-timc.imag.fr/Sylvain.Ferriol/debian/d-i/i386/
it works great! Hope this will be in the official release. In my last mail
I didn't mention the problem the installer had with the SATA drive. With
previous images I had to set the HD to 'legacy' mode and the drive is
treated as an IDE disk (/dev/hdc). With the above images, SATA is handled
properly. I will submit an installatio report separately. Thanks for the
good work.
