Package: installation-reports
Debian-installer-version:
Today's Testing install CD :
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/daily/i386/20050713/
Date : 2005-07-21
I'll spare you all the details...
The boot init file in the CD says, for 2.6, that the kernel is
/install/2.6/linux but in fact the file is named vmlinuz on the CD.
So by pressing Enter it blurps "catn't find the kernel /install/2.6/linux"
which obviously hampers its booting abilities.
So, in order to boot in 2.6, you have to type "/install/2.6/vmlinuz
initrd=/install/2.6/initrd.gz root=blah blah" which is a little less
intuitive than pressing "Enter".
Anyway, it works provided you type the line after "install2.6" in the CD's
config at the lilo prompt, replacing the wrong filename with the right one.
Thought you'd like to know ;)
Apart from that I'm really enjoying the installer. It' really cool. Keep
up the good 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.
