That is a problem. After completing the first step of the install, the part
of
booting the CD and setting up the system, it wants to reboot to install the
other
packages. It is during this boot that hdd is not detected, and therefore I
can not
install any packages. I have also noticed that irq 15 does not appear in the
/proc/interrupts file.
I guess I could move the cd to the primary ide interface, but I'm lazy.
