Package: debian-installer
Version: lenny daily build from 11 Aug, 2008
Severity: important


When running the lenny installer it doesn't find the two SATA disks I
have in my system. It comes with the following screen/message:

-------------
Detect disks:
No disk drive was detected. If you know the name of the driver needed by
your disk drive, you can select it from the list. 
-------------
The option from the driverlist that was selected was: Continue with no 
disk drive.

When going to the partition disks option the installer reverts to the
main menu without a message. (I assume it is because no disks can be
partioned, but it could help to insert an error here).

The system is running etch, and I have installed the two SATA disks in a
raid mirror. 

After I selected the 'Abort installation' I did notice that both my md0
and md1 raid disks were picked up by the kernel, and it tried to unmount
them (or something, couldn't stop the display from disappearing). So it
could be that the disks cannot be found because they are already in use. 

The image I used was an AMD64 image.

Please let me know if you need more information. 

Regards, Geert-Jan.

We are closing this bug report against debian-installer 
for one of the following reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the bug report give the feeling that
  the reported problem was lying 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.
