No luck with that one -- it loads up, boots the initrd and then
crashes. I tried an earlier one from that page as well, same thing. I
also debootstrap installed sarge on the multia and it seems to install
okay, but then when I actually boot it, there's something wrong with the
sym63c8xx scsi driver and it always go into single user mode saying it
can't fsck /dev/sda1 which is the /boot partition.
I think it just isn't loading the module, or the module is corrupt --
no problem loading that module fin the etch install on my external
drive. And no problem fscking any of the partions on /dev/sda from etch
either.
Also tried installing devfsd hoping that might resolve the problem,
but it didn't. Maybe I'll try installing a 2.6 kernel -- although that
doesn't really solve anything since then pcmcia won't work, which is
mostly why I wanted to install sarge.
Sigh! Any luck getting the pcmcia module fixed in etch?
