Bug#907445: cdrom: Debian installer on CF card asks for Cd-Rom with packages on Geode
Package: cdrom
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where
appropriate ***
We have 2 computers based on Geode processor:
1. Kontron MOPSlcdLX - PC/104 with AMD Geode™ LX800
2. PC104 TF-PFM-540I-B10
* What led up to the situation?
We failed to boot from Dvd-Rw Usb connected drive. Then we prepare boot
CF card and try to install on the other CF card.
Then (supprisingly) Debian installer asks for Cd-Rom in order to
continue installation. It is unable to install unles you
type /dev/sdb (in our case - we boot from second drive and try to
install on the first drive).
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I try to install Debian from prepared CF installation card.
* What was the outcome of this action?
The installer asks for Cd-Rom in order to install packages and to
continue installation process.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I suppose installer to be aware device from what it was booted (and
packages this device provide).
It should ask only in one case: if proprietary packages are needed.
