Debian GNU/Linux testing "Sarge" - Official Snapshot i386 Binary-1
(downloaded May 16, 2005
uname -a: linux willy 2.6.8-2-686 #1 Mon Jan 24 03:58:38 EST 2005 i686
GNU/Linux
Date: May 21, 2005
Method: Began the install with CD in a Sony DRU710A DVD RW drive connected
to my home network (connected to the internet)
Machine: Intek 915G - ICH6 chipset motherboard (Gigabyte GA 8I915G Pro Rev
2.0). DVD on IDE, HD on SATA, RAID (disabled in BIOS)

Comments/Problems:
Eventually I ended up using expert 26.
Detect CD: failed until I specified correct device
/dev/discs/.....(?)
Load installer modules: reports of many modules associated with ide and
sata not loading, but nevertheless the install proceeded.
Reboot:
The following error occured:
/sbin/init: 431 cannot open dev/console: no such file
kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!
Prior to reboot the installer apparently thought the hd was /dev/hda and
set up grub accordingly. Upon reboot the hd was identified as /dev/sda.
Rebooted with installation CD far enough to mount hd and edit fstab to
change /dev/hda references to /dev/sda. Rebooted of hd and within Grub
edited bootup to change "root=/dev/hda3" to "root=/dev/sda3". Bootup
proceeded. Now I am continuing with the install.
Let me know if you need me to test these issues further.

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.
