Package: installation-reports

When I try install Debian (http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/6.0.6/amd64/iso-cd/debian-6.0.6-amd64-xfce+lxde-CD-1.iso) I boot from my hdd with grub:
menuentry 'debian-6.06-amd64.iso' {
    loopback loop /debian.iso
    linux (loop)/install.amd/vmlinuz vga=788 iso-scan/filename=/debian.iso -- quiet
    initrd (loop)/install.amd/initrd.gz
}

But the option "iso-scan/filename" not work (Ok. It's normal. It's work with a Ubuntu *.iso. I try it for Debian, but without success.) The Debian image not include kernel module loop.ko, so not with the option, not manually I can't mount iso-file
and install Debian. That's bad, but not fatal.
I find here (http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/apas02.html#howto-getting-images-hard-disk) a way install Debian from my hdd with iso-file. I boot with this (http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/squeeze/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/{initrd.gz,vmlinuz}) and try this (http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/{initrd.gz,vmlinuz}) too, but both of them don't have kernel module pata_amd.ko and my hdd don't appears in /dev after boot and I can't install Debian. I don't know, is it a bug or not? It's no fatal for me, too. I boot and install Debian from my usb flash drive, but more convenient ways is desirable. Thanks.

P.s. I'm sorry for my English. I hope it don't hurt your heart and ruin your brain.

Hi,

thank you for submitting installation reports, much appreciated.

I read through all the bugs mentioned here (and I'm sure they were read by 
several people at the time they were submitted) and am closing them now as/if
- they (finally) indicated success and/or
- I know from first hand experience that the functionality is working in 
Wheezy and/or
- they only contained very little information and/or
- they contained user errors and/or
- they were caused by broken hardware and/or
- they have been from a development phase where things were not stable and/or
- they are quite old (and thus likely fixed today) and/or
- moreinfo was asked and not given or
- they are wishlist but rather special + exotic and not have been acted on for 
years. (See http://blog.liw.fi/posts/wishlist-bugs/ why it's often useful to 
close wishlist bugs.)

If I've closed a bug incorrectly please do reply (it's easy to reopen and I'll 
do if requested) or just file a new one - thats often better, as the bug log 
will be clearer and shorter and not contain cruft.


cheers,
        Holger
