Re: guide for installing debian using the command line



No network connection found with stock debian image means you haven't got a floppy in the computer with a directory called firmware holding the correct driver for your network card. The debian firmware installer has a selection of firmware drivers on it not necessarily all of them so if the network adapter manufacturer made a linux firmware driver you may have to make your own firmware floppy then try the installation since graphical operation is unlikely to find any resources command line could not find.

Hi,
i need to install debian to a pc that has no internet connection. last
time i tried, it requires me to setup the connection during the
install and since no connection was found, it failed. Can i skip that
screen and setup my connection later, after the install complete and i
get the graphical user interface? and, is there any guide to follow
for installing debian using the cd1 (650 mb), since that is the only
accessible debian installer.

If you’re starting the installer by just pressing Enter, you can press Tab when you hear the beep, and type:
priority=medium
Then you’ll get a step-by-step menu for the various installer tasks, and you can just skip the network part.
The first one is ‘Detect network devices’, the next is ‘Configure the network’.
Just skip those 2 items, and proceed with the install.

Martin
