CD-ROM mount failed



Hi there,

I have just tried 2005-04-23 CD ISO image of Sarge on ARAnyM (kernel
2.4.27-atari) and it still fails when it's Scanning CD-ROM (the progress
bar stops at 14%, if it means anything). The error message is something
like "Cannot mount CD" and funny (or actually sad) is that the CD is
mounted already on /cdrom and all files seem available.

When clicking on the Retry button the log on 4th console eventually
shows the following:

anna: grep:
anna: /cdrom/dists//Release
anna: : No such file or directory
anna: WARNING **: bad d-i Packages file

It still seems to me that the name of this distro got lost in the file
path - should have been /cdrom/dists/sarge/Release...

Can someone with Atari (or any other m68k machine) please confirm or
deny this problem?

Good is that the sarge d-i contains "Checking CD-ROM integrity" option.
Thanks to that I ensured that the CD ISO image is in perfect shape
before I posted this message.

Should I enter it into BTS? I reported it month ago already but nothing
has changed since then.

P.S. ARAnyM 0.9.0final is in Debian sid already
(http://packages.debian.org/aranym) so everyone can test this for
themselves. Setting it up is very easy. I'd eventually write a short
article about booting Sarge in ARAnyM if you were interested.
