/dev/sda2 / reiserfs notail 0 1 /dev/sda3 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sda5 /dati reiserfs defaults 0 2 /dev/sda6 /windows vfat defaults 0 2

Summary: the partitioning of the SATA disk /dev/sda begins with a 50GB NTFS (Windows) partition, not used under Debian. Then there is the root partition (17 GB, reiserfs) on /dev/sda2. Then a 3GB swap partition on /dev/sda3, then a 40GB reiserfs partition and a 10Gb fat32 partition. /home is mounted remotely
	from an nfs server

Comments/Problems:
The only problem was that ide-detect got the CD installer hanged while trying to find the local ide drives. Since there are no
	ide drives, the hanging was hanging on indefinitely.
	We had to reboot with the linux26 option.
	The 2.6 kernel recognizes the SATA drive properly.
Understanding this required a few minutes digging (and cursing,
	of course) through FAQs and similar.
For a virginal first-time GNU/Linux user, however, not being
	able to boot the install CD might be the unpretty end
	of her short GNU/Linux adventure.

Best regards and heartly thanks for your work.

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
