Bug#325622: Debian destroyed my 30GB Maxtor

[x <xtv@gmx.net>]

I tried alt-F3 and alt-F4
nothing happens
I have to write down all error messages with paper and pencil (like 20 
years ago)


Install the base system
NO FILE SYSTEM MOUNTED ON TARGET

Partition Disk
NO ROOT FILE SYSTEM

FAILED TO CREATE A SWAP SPACE

INPUT / OUTPUT ERROR DURING READ ON

INSTALLATION FAILED

all these messages above  keep coming up endless


not even Maxpro can repair my DH
after trying to run your installation


why can you tell me in a few steps which tasks to choose
before hitting enter ...

thanks
