Bug#288205: Deb Installer Bug 288205
Thanks for the reply, here's what I get:
"Alt-F3"
Mke2fs 1.35 28-feb-2004
Warning: could not read block 0: attempt to read block from filesystem
resulted in short read
Ext2fs_mkdir: attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read
While creating root dir
"Alt-F4"
Main-menu[505]: DEBUG: virtual package harddrive-detection
To be honest I don't think it is a fault with the installer, although Win9x
/ 2000 Install fine on this hardware I think the relative age of this system
is the problem - Perhaps the 2.4 / 2.6 Series kernels are just a bit too
'advanced' for this machine.
It's a shame though because I have debian running on an Xbox, an Athlon Xp
3200, a Dell Laptop, a debian based distro on an iPaq PDA, and on a Cobalt
Qube 2! Debian just makes great hardware even better!!
Cheers
Nick
