New install report
Hi everybody,
I just installed Debian 2.2 on a Toshiba 430CDS with the CD downloaded
from ftp.fsn.hu (on May 28, so supposedly the official version) and it
worked fine. The only two things I'd like to report are:
* I used the 2.2.15-idepci rescue disk. When prompted to insert the
root floppy, I got the message:
floppy0: unexpected interrupt
VFS: Insert root floppy disk to be loaded into RAM disk and press ENTER
floppy0: unexpected interrupt
floppy0: sensei repl[0]=c0 repl[1]=0
floppy0: sensei repl[0]=c1 repl[1]=0
floppy0: sensei repl[0]=c2 repl[1]=0
floppy0: sensei repl[0]=c3 repl[1]=0
However, the root floppy loaded fine and the install went on.
* After the reboot, dselect failed to launch automatically. I got the
message:
dpkg: unexpected data after package and selection at line 1
I launched dselect manually and proceeded from there.
Besides that, all was perfect (I succeeded to set Ethernet PCMCIA
during install, so I could benefit of the newer packages).
So, I am really happy to be now under Debian! This is my first real
install of Debian -- but I've been using Linux for a few years now.
Thanks to all of you for the great work! Keep it that way!
With the hope this has been useful,
ChriS
