Comments/Problems:
On first attempt the onboard NIC was not recognised so I disabled it in BIOS
and installed a PCI ethernet card. This was recognised and the install went a
bit further.
Installation stopped at a screen headed
No disk drive was detected. If you know the driver needed by your disk drive,
you can select it from the list.
In order to see if there was an updated driver to be had I tried installing
with
64studio_2.1_amd64.iso
and debian-testing-amd64-CD-1.iso dated 16-6-2008
Both with results similar to the above.
I attach "hardware-summary" and "syslog" files from the last install attempt.
Regards, Rob
