cannot install Sarge
I, a semi-knowledgeable Linux user, have received a Jan 22, 2005 version
of Sarge on CDs 1, 2, an 3 from a mirror listed on the Debian site. The
installation stops and refuses to play nice after asking me for the
Ethernet driver. I do not use an Ethernet driver nor any other similar
connection on my box. When I try to force the installation bypassing the
ethernet request, the installation seems to continue processing but yields
a garbled Sarge which won't run at all. I can't figure out precisely
where the installation is going wrong, but it seems not to be installing
either a grub or a lilo loader (I've tried both.)
I have Slackware 10.0 working on hda1 and am trying to install Sarge on
hda3 (swap on hda2) with lots of memory to spare.
I'd appreciate any assistance.
Thanks,
sam
