So this is a regression, the kernel in the rc2 installer works with his nforce2 controller and the new one doesn't. ----- Forwarded message from Mika Rastas <mika82.kone@kolumbus.fi> ----- From: Mika Rastas <mika82.kone@kolumbus.fi> Date: Sat, 12 Feb 2005 12:58:51 +0200 To: Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Subject: Re: Bug#293683: My problem!

But I was saying that I changed the sarge installer to rc2 (the official rel) and it worked. When I installed I didn't select the usb-storage driver because it gave problems before(system hang in 2% of driver install). So I got the system installed and booted up. Then i updated, upgraded and downloaded the new kernel 2.6.10 sources. I didn't manage to compile because I was choosing to append the kernel image name with string (experimental) option. So when I set it back to empty compiling and boot went ok. So I have solved my problem with a different installer. But usb-strorage driver had some problems with my system on the unstable installer. And it didn't find my sata harddrives and the drivers where loaded sata_sil. But this was on the unstable installer. To a different subject how many places for startup config does debian have? I am having trouble disabling snd_intel8x0 module from to be loaded at start up. it's on the blacklist... But this doesent concern you so sorry. Hopefully this clears things up. T: Mika PS. I am a allmost noob to linux so my terms might be a bit off... ----- End forwarded message ----- -- see shy jo
