Bug#230933: 2004-02-07 HP Omnibook 500 netinstall lilo/grub failed



2004-02-07 HP Omnibook 500 netinstall lilo/grub failed

A me-too and additional info.

I used Debian-Installer beta 2 to install testing. I had to invoke
with devfs=mount,dall:

append load initrd=d-i/current/netboot-initrd.gz devfs=mount,dall console=tty0 ramdisk_size=8192 root=/dev/ram0 DEBCONF_PRIORITY=medium

I also tried a couple of recent installer snapshots but they all
failed to detect partitions on the disk.

beta 2 goes smoothly until we come to install lilo or grub - both
fail. As with original submitter I can't find any vmlinuz installed.

I have tried a few dead ends, but don't know if they would be
useful. Please et me know if you need more info.

regards
Kevin Glynn

(and thanks for all the good work!)
