help needed on installing Debian 4.0 on A180C
Hello,
I just got 3 working A180C's from work which weren't used anymore and
I wanted to install Linux on them. But I'm having some problems
installing 4.0r0 from DVD. After booting properly and going through
the language and country settings the system looks for a CD-ROM drive
and then it just stops. No errors message what-so-ever.
Installing from the 3.0r4 DVD I had around seems to go without problems.
I'm using a HP external SCSI DVD-ROM drive and using a HP serial
console connected to the system.
Another question, I have a PCI IDE/SATA controller card lying around
which I tried in one A180C, the card is seen by the box (as RAID) but
not the drive connected to it. Is this at all possible and/or should
I use a SATA drive instead of the IDE I tried this with?
Thanks in advance for your help/tips!
With kind regards,
Angelo
