RE : Re: Etch install fails on HP 9000 715 and 755
Hello,
I know this mailing list is for hppa but I have quite
the same problem on sparc32 (SparcStation 5 & 10). The
installer hangs randomly while loading SCSI driver and
even if this passes, it can't mount the cdrom. The
cdrom is seen by the driver but mount returns a
strange and cryptic error. Is it the same on hppa ?
May be we have to look at the isofs driver ?
Hope this help a little.
Regards
Cedric Pellerin
