Bug#250002: Intallation Report
I guess I used the install tool not as described in the manual.
As it is an old machine i was not that patient and installed woody
again.
Sorry!
The console 2+3 informed me about errors on hda like
{timeout}, {reset}SUCCESS, and so on.
The same occured under woody so i just threw away my old
hdd and found another in the cellar ;)
Because of my imapatience I installed woody, allthough...
All I can say is, that installation went through until the point
as the kernel should be installed. then it broke with a red
screen which informed me, that it were unable to install the
kernel-image.
It all took me too long time so sorry that I can't help you any
further...
Greeting from Bonn (Germany)
