Package: installation-reports
Severity: minor
This report was done with RC2 CDs, downloaded via bittorrent
Known by my will to do weird things, this time I tried booting from the
second CD, instead of the first. It listed only "linux" and "expert" as
booting methods, so I chose "linux"
But I couldn't get really far, because quite early in the installation
(just after reading the CD's data), it stated that the CD didn't contain
the correct kernel modules (there was a "mismatch" between the modules and
the kernel version), and took me back to the menu.
There's no option (or at least I could find no option) allowing me to
umount the CD and put the right one in, so I had to reboot to do a
successful installation, booting from the first CD.
I don't know whose fault it is, hence I'm filing it to
Installation-Reports.

Getting a SCSI chain working is perfectly simple if you remember that there
must be exactly three terminations: one on one end of the cable, one on the
far end, and the goat, terminated over the SCSI chain with a silver-handled
knife whilst burning *black* candles. --- Anthony DeBoer
