I am trying to install Debian linux 2.1 onto a toshiba satellite ct with
40mg ram and a 3g ide harddrive (upgraded from the stock 777). The
install goes fine as it is pretty easy, but I can not load lilo on the hard
drive. <-- this is not realy my problem. I have partitioned the hard drive
so the root file system will be under 1 gig, and to as little as 0.5 gigs to
no avail. So I can't load lilio, fine, I will just boot off of the floppy,
get things rolling and fix it later....
I set up the floppy, reboot the machine, and this is what happens
boot:
Loading
Invalid or currupt kernel image.
I have tried installing with my favorite modules and no modules or network
support at all and I still get the same problem.
my partitions are as follows
winblows -- 1.2gigs hda1
/ 0.9 gigs (tried 0.5 also) hda2

We believe that the bug you reported has been fixed in the potato
boot-floppies, such as version 2.2.8 or higher.
Note that many boot problems are fixed in 2.2.8 since they use the 2.2
kernels. There are many additional flavors of kernels for i386 as
well.
In some cases, bugs are closed due to lack of feedback from the user.
Many problems are also fixed by the inclusion of new packages from
Potato, such as makedev, modconf, etc.
The management of the boot sector has also changed, which solves many
problems.
We encourage you to test the potato boot-floppies on your system. If
your problem persists, please either respond to debian-boot and CC
your original bug and we will reopen the bug, or else submit a new bug
against the boot-floppies package.
Thanks so much for helping to improve the debian installation system.
