debian on compaq
Just a reminder, I was having a hard time getting Debian to install on
my Compaq. Got lots of help from this list. In case I forgot anyone,
please forgive me.
I would like to thank Brandon Mitchell <bhmit1@mail.wm.edu> for
pointing out that my cdrom was actually /dev/hdc so I was able to mount
it to get the binaries for dselect.
The dmesg trick was pretty cool, thanks to the dude that showed me that
one ( he originally had more | dmesg but I was able to figure it out
eventually ).
I do in fact have the compaq bios problem and what I need to get around
it - thanks to Peter S Galbraith <galbraith@mixing.qc.dfo.ca> for that.
Also nico@oshima.sonytel.be (Nico De Ranter) for telling me that I was
not crazy for not being able to get the network adapter to work.
Hopefully I got everyone, and once I get the netork adapter I'll be able
to move my code over and then I'll really start causing trouble :)
Thanks again,
Alfonso.
