Bug#360083: Installation Report



Hi Frans,

First, I went to:
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
Then I clicked on "If you'd like something newer" netinst CD image for
i386.  The file name it downloaded was debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso.
I downloaded the file on 3/29.  Are you suggesting that I try to
download the Beta 2 release to see if it works?

Regards,
Mike

You don't mention which version of the installer you used. You need at 
least the Beta 2 release or a daily image of the installer from [1].
The Sarge version will not work with recent Dell systems.

You should also check the errata [2] for the SATA ATAPI issue and may
have 
use the workaround as linked from there or at [3].

Cheers,
FJP
