Comments/Problems:

 

Cd boots fine. Partioning went ok, but after that, the basesystem installation fails. It cant find the CD rom player. I talked to others about this problem and it could be a problem with installing Debian on SATA HDDs. I have 2 sata hdds on my onboard Silicon Image 3112 controller. As far as I know, that controller should work with the kernel, build in the cd. I don’t use the disks in RAID or JBOD. Any clue what to do next?

 

Thank you in advance,

 

Greetings,

 

Tim Blank

No problem.

Since it was a media issue, I'm closing this installation report.

Thanks by installing Debian! :-D
