Comments/Problems:

Boot-Up, choice of language worked fine. During detecting CD it stopped at 98% and displayed an error-message, that the RELEASE-files are missing. If I tried to detect the CD again, it failed entirely, because the DVD-ROM would not be detected any more. Got the same results in 3 boot-ups. Oh, I used the 2.6-kernel and tried the standard mode twice and the expert-mode once. The DVDROM is connected to the first IDE-port as master. Although I don't think it matters (because I never came to the point where the harddrive is detected): the harddrive is connected via SATA.



The computer seems farely new.
Debian-Installer Beta2 is about 5 months old
and I guess about 7 months old in kernel.

Please try again with a recent version of debian-installer.
Is has a newer kernel (which handles the hardware detection)
Visit http://www.nl.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ for
download locations.

Please report your milage.

Took me some time, because I wanted to ahve some free hours before starting.

Trying to use newer version failed two times. But I believe it was due to incompatibilities between DVD-writer and DVD-reader. I cannot be sure, but I don't believe my original problem (see above) was also due to those problems, because in that case I got no error message saying "read error". In my last two tries, I got such a message.

Instead of trying it again, I finally tried a netinstall-Version of Beta3, because it fits onto a CD (expected no read errors). This worked without problem, installation report see below.

Consider doing another install in about two weeks, Beta3 is then available.
Because it took me so long for my next try, I kind of did that. ;-)

If you are not the right person to send this installation report to, please
forward it. Thanks.

Comments/Problems:
Everything worked fine. Although one file neccessary for the installation of KDE was missing on the uni-frankfurt.de-mirror. As I live in Darmstadt, I switched
to linux.mathe.tu-darmstadt.de. There I encountered no problems.
