Output of lspci:
[sorry, since installation did not work I would have to copy manually...
if you require additional info, please send me an email]
initial boot worked: [O]
configure network hw: [O]
configure network: [E] - broadcom card did not work for dhcp manual
conf required. but network is not working anyway (as I noticed using the
rescue system; but I am sure that tg3 is correct, Knoppix works with it)
Detect CD: [O]
Load installer modules: [O]
Detect hard drives: [E] - sata_uli/libata required and available, but
not loaded automatically. even when prompted for drivers and after
selecting "sata_uli" system says no HDD available (but hdd was recognized
and identified correctly on scsi3; as I found on the output console!)
run debian-installer hw-detect again (as reported last time)- then sata
drive was found
Do I miss something, do I need to load other drivers too?!;
Partition hard drives: [O] - improved since last post
Mount partitions: [O] - improved since last post
Install base system: [O]
Install boot loader: [O]
Reboot: [E] - Grub works without any problem; but
after loading the kernel I get:
kernel panic (pivot_root: no such file or directory; /sbin/init: 432:
cannot open dev/console: No such file; Kernel panic: Attempted to kill
init!
Comments/Problems:
Without "acpi=off" --> instantanous kernel panic of the installer
Code: 49 8b 91 f0 00 00 00 00 48 ff c1 49 8d 04 12 48 03 45 28 48 89
console shuts up ...
not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
If during boot-procedure of the installer an USB-Stick is connected (what
I did on error), the bootup freezes (obviously while detecting the
USB-components). If removed, the bootup immediately continues and the
language selection appears.
