Debian Installer: Install Falls
I was attempting to install Debian on a NEC VErsa 5080x laptop. I used
the 3 floppy netinstaller.
I seemed to boot fine. It asked me the language I would like to use and
I selected "English" It then asked me to select my network card. I chose
xirc2ps_cs. It continued downloading things from the net and got 96% of
the way through downloading the installation components from the net
when it hung, while performing a usb-discover.
The laptop does have USB support, but the netinstall floppies hung at
the same place whether it was enabled or not. I have attached an
inventory of the laptop to this email. If you have additional questions
please let me know..
