The debian-installer installs someting but not a working system... If I start the CD, it ask me three or four questions and it install the whole thing and after rebooting nothing does work I do not like to download every day tonns of ISO images for nothing... > I would grab the floppies for i386 sarge and install that, then Do not work... > debootstrap amd64, or get the netinstall or hdmedia install for amd64 > fro the ports-status page and install that. netbooting is generally not > that hard to get working. Now I have created a 250 MB hda1 partiton with Woody and it works... Then I have installed debootstrap and installed on a second partition SID. and after this, I have chrooted and installed a 2.4.27 Kernel and put lilo in hda5 Back in hda1 I have setup lilo for the hda5 and now it works... Note: I hate the debian-installer ! It is like Windows... ...it installs something and you do not know what ! Oh yes, I have had false keymaps, false /etc/networking/interfaces false /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf... > Len Sorensen Greetings Michelle -- Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org/ Michelle Konzack Apt. 917 ICQ #328449886 50, rue de Soultz MSM LinuxMichi 0033/3/88452356 67100 Strasbourg/France IRC #Debian (irc.icq.com)
