boot problems
hi
I'm new to debian and also fairly new to linux. I installed debian
with the bf24 option, going thru the bios etc before the install and
setting it up per the install instructions. The installation went
fairly smooth, alot better that I had expected as the rumors had it
that it was very hard to install. I did have some confusion when it
came time to installing drivers so I installed anything that it looked
like I had, ide, usb, etc. I didnt see my network card in the list so
I assumed it was found and installed already.
Anyways more to the point. After installing I booted from the
harddrive. It starts booting with lilo and everything seems to be
working fine until it gets an error,
"ide2: unexpected interupt, status=0xd0, count=????"
I am having trouble finding anything to go on with a google search and
thought maybe you could point me in the right direction for solving
this issue.
I also assume it could be a hardware conflict. My hardware is as follows:
board: MSI intel 865pe
CPU: intel p4-3.0e HT
ram: 256megs DDR333
floppy: 1.44 generic
ide drives:
Primary master - sony cd burner
primary slave - empty
secondary slave & master - empty
third master - 80gig samsung SATA
third slave - empty
fourth master & slave - empty
video: g-force4 mx4000
the ide, sata, lan, & sound are all onboard
