Package: installation-reports Boot method: USB stick<How did you boot the installer? CD? floppy? network?> Image version: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso (Daily build #5 for Squeeze, "This build finished at Fri Jan 22 15:47:45 UTC 2010." http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/daily/hd-media/boot.img.gz Both linked from http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ Date: 22.Jan 2010, approximately 19:45 GMT Machine: Dell XPS M1330 Processor: Intel Centrino Memory: 2 GB Partitions: irrelevant Output of lspci -knn (or lspci -nn): Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [O] Detect network card: [ ] Configure network: [ ] Detect CD: [ ] Load installer modules: [ ] Detect hard drives: [ ] Partition hard drives: [ ] Install base system: [ ] Clock/timezone setup: [ ] User/password setup: [ ] Install tasks: [ ] Install boot loader: [ ] Overall install: [E] Comments/Problems: After giving in language and keyboard information, the disks are detected and the installer searches for an image on the installation media, then gives a blue screen entitled: "Load installer components from an installer ISO" "No kernel modules were found. This probably is due to a mismatch between the kernel used..." etc. The USB stick was prepared according to http://www.debian.org/releases/squeeze/amd64/ch04s03.html.en using 4.3.1 Copying the files -- the easy way: "For this installation method you will also need to download a CD image. The installation image and the CD image must be based on the same release of debian-installer. If they do not match you are likely to get errors[4] during the installation." ------- [4] The error message that is most likely to be displayed is that no kernel modules can be found. This means that the version of the kernel module udebs included on the CD image is different from the version of the running kernel. If the installation image and the CD image linked from the same page do not match, I don't know how to make sure they match. This is perhaps a mis-coordination in the daily builds or in the links provided on http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ It failed the same way with the businesscard image: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-businesscard.iso Regards, Mike

Hi, thank you for submitting installation reports, much appreciated. I read through all the bugs mentioned here (and I'm sure they were read by several people at the time they were submitted) and am closing them now as/if - they (finally) indicated success and/or - I know from first hand experience that the functionality is working in Wheezy and/or - they only contained very little information and/or - they contained user errors and/or - they have been from a development phase where things were not stable and/or - they are very old, more than 2.5 years. If I've closed a bug incorrectly please do reply (it's easy to reopen and I'll do if requested) or just file a new one - thats often better, as the bug log will be clearer and shorter and not contain cruft. cheers, HolgerAttachment: signature.asc
