Comments/Problems:

The system was a H3C Neocean IX-1540 Storage Server, a 4U appliance. It was shipped with SuSE Linux, however is a old kernel. By the way, it is a headless server, even without slot to insert video adapter. I used a USB stick to boot the computer, with output to serial console, and I used another computer to connect to the console port. It freezes at this point:

This installation step depends on one or more other steps that have not yet
been performed.

-----------------------

Some PCMCIA hardware needs special resource configuration options in order to
work, and can cause the computer to freeze otherwise. For example, some Dell
laptops need "exclude port 0x800-0x8ff" to be specified here. These options
will be added to /etc/pcmcia/config.opts. See the installation manual or the
PCMCIA HOWTO for more information.

For most hardware, you do not need to specify anything here.

I added hw-detect/start_pcmcia=false to the boot args, however it is of no use -- the system insists to detect PCMCIA device, which do not present in the server.

thanks

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 were caused by broken hardware and/or
- they have been from a development phase where things were not stable and/or
- they are very old (and due to the above reasons very probably fixed by now).

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,
        Holger
