(repeated cca 10x in the same second) here the show begins:11:13:51 main-menu[1481]: (process:5851): mount: mounting /dev/sda on /media failed: Invalid argument
the same for sdb, sdcthen FAT comply 3x again, and then it tryes to mount cciss/c0d0p2 (the internal HP raid E200) and fails with "attempt to access beyond end of device"
then FAT again ... another attempts to mount all the backage found in /dev...It seems for me, that it simply fails to mount the USB pendrive. Anyhow, the partition of course resides on /dev/sda1, not on /dev/sda! So I don't wonder it fails.

However, I can't figure out, how could I give it to him. I have put them on the root of usb pendrive, they are exactly the files that he needs, and it still asks for them again and again.The installer should at least prompted you to supply a .fw firmware file. Did it do this?Could you look closely at the syslog (Alt+F4, or Alt+F2 and /var/log/syslog) for firmware related issues? You can also edit (using nano) /bin/check-missing-firmware and add a "set -x" at the beginning of the script. This will trace its execution in the syslog. Cheers,
