[O] =3D OK, [E] =3D Error (please elaborate below), [ ] =3D didn't try it
Comments/Problems:
Install base system fails due to a broken agp chipset. In this PC modprobe
agpgart always hang forever not only for debian (I don't know if this happe=
n in
all XE2 or only in mine) so discover configuration hangs forever.=20
This is the workaround I used to skip agpgart probing during discover setup:
- Boot in expert mode.
- Do all installation stages until Install base System.
- Star Install Base system and INMEDIATLY create a /target/etc/discover.co=
nf
containing 'skip agpgart'. This causes discover instalation to fail, but in=
stall
base system fase is completed.
- chroot to /target, mv /etc/discover.con.dpkg-new /etc/discover.conf and =
add
'skip agpgart'. Reinstall discover in the chroot. exit the chroot.
- Continue installation. And reboot.
