Re: Troubles installing Debian on an ASUS notebook

Hi again!
Thanks! I got it running with the sarge-amd64-2.6.12-netinst.iso <http://tinyplanet.ca/%7Elsorense/amd64/sarge-amd64-2.6.12-netinst.iso> at http://tinyplanet.ca/~lsorense/amd64/
Still, it doesn't tell why the other installs did not work. For more information, here are the answers to the few questions people asked: 

The specifications of my notebook:
ASUS A6QK30-RWDL
Processor : AMD Turion 64 MT30 1,6 Ghz
Cache memory L2 : 1 MB
Chipset: SIS 756 + SIS 964L
512 MB DDR 333 memory
Screen : 15.4" WXGA Color Shine
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce     Go 6200 Turbo Cache 256Mo

Yes, the i386 sarge netinstall works on it.
I've tried the "linux26" tip at boot prompt and the only change was "Could not find kernel image: linux26" instead of "Could not find kernel image: linux" ... 

That's it folks!
Thanks to all of you.

hello

it might be this sarge netinst you have tried, but maybe not. It worked
for me well a few days ago on my Acer Aspire 5024wlmi (turion64)

Hi!

For 2 days, I've been trying to install in vain Debian on my ASUS A6QK30
(AMD Turion 64 processor).
Is there anyone who has successfully done a 64 bit installation on that
kind of notebooks?

I tried these methods:
- installing from the sarge netinst CD: it kind of freezes right after
the country selection
- installing from the sarge CDs: same problem
- installing from the etch netinst CD: I got the following error:
ISOLINUX 2.04 2003-04-16  Copyright (C) 1994-2003 H. Peter Anvin
Could not find kernel image: linux
boot: _

md5 checksums of the downloads were alright.

Does anyone have a clue on how should I proceed?

Bye,
- Emmanuel
