Comments/Problems:This is my ~20th attempt to install
Debian. This is my best result.
"Segmentation fault
<6>Journalled Block Device driver loaded
pivot_root: No such file or directory
/sbin/init: 432: cannot open dev/console: no such
file
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!
_ "
Those are the last 6 lines on a screen full of
numbers.
These last few times I've tried for dual boot, and I
am able to select and boot XP.
Generally, the install seems good(I am not yet
concerned about networks), though there seems to be an
instability in that not all of my attempts have been
identical. Sometimes I do not see the free space in
the partitioning options, and I vaguely remember being
asked for a time zone in one of the attempts.
I am determined to leave the MS world, and if I am
advised to buy another Linux CD, I will. However, I
have so far paid $ for 5 distros(2 of them Debian) and
the only one to work so far is DSL on a mini CD.
Please advise.

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.
