Partitions: <df -Tl will do; the raw partition table is preferred>
(this is probably not relevant as this partitioning was done with
current stable installer)

Comments/Problems:
Detection of common IDE CD failed. As I don't know how kernel detects CD
I haven't the faintest what went wrong. Retried from the command line,
but did
not find anything strange except that /dev/hdc did not exist (but this
is
probably a side effect).
Interestingly, problem is also present in Ubuntu 6.xx server, but _not_
in current stable i386 install, which detected CD drive without
problems.
I continued with minimal stable, and upgraded to full testing
Note: This system is our local experimental system, so can be
experimented with. If needed I can retry booting with new installer
again. just contact me on: <ernest - ter . kuile at klm . com> if
you need more information.
