Comments/Problems:
Installing LILO failed. All the install logs are attached, in a tarball. The other etch netinst CD I have (that I burned on 2006-01-21) also fails to install LILO on this hardware. I am building this HD for use in a 486 box that has trouble booting with GRUB, so I need to install LILO to troubleshoot _that_ problem. If you want me to run tests, please contact alexeyt<at>freeshell<dot>org within the next week or so, I'll leave this hardware available and set aside some time.

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.
