Re: guide for installing debian using the command line
Hi,
ok i am confused!
let me tell you again the story,
the laptop that will be installed with debian does not have internet
connected, because it uss wifi instead of land connection.
so, first i downloaded the debian 650 cd image, cd1. and then burn and
boot it, at the beep i press s and enter.
speech came, so i install until, the network connection problem, described here,
begin text:
4.2.8. Configuring the Network
Eager to automate the process as much as possible, the installer
attempts an automatic DHCP network configuration. If this fails, it
offers more choices: try again with a normal DHCP configuration,
attempt DHCP configuration by declaring the name of the machine, or
set up a static network configuration.
This last option requires an IP address, a subnet mask, an IP address
for a potential gateway, a machine name, and a domain name.
TIP Configuration without DHCP
If the local network is equipped with a DHCP server that you do not
wish to use because you prefer to define a static IP address for the
machine during installation, you can add the netcfg/use_dhcp=false
option when booting from the CD-ROM. You just need to go to the
desired menu entry by pressing the TAB key and add the desired option
before pressing the Enter key.
BEWARE Do not improvise
Many local area networks are based on an implicit assumption that all
machines can be trusted, and inadequate configuration of a single
computer will often perturb the whole network. As a result, do not
connect your machine to a network without first agreeing with its
administrator on the appropriate settings (for example, the IP
address, netmask, and broadcast address).
end text.
i cannot skip this, it fail because no wifi present, so should i
connect to wifi network or, skip this and setup later? If skipping,
how to do that?
or maybe since this is cd version, the packages are not complete. I
only have 1 usb drive, and i can download all of them, maybe, but
only one iso can be booted at a time.
sorry and thanks
