Installation
I'm trying to install Linux Debian 2.1 onto my
machine.
It is a PII 350 with a new UDMA 20GByte drive.
I currently use
Partition Magic 5.01 pro to manage my partitions which are currently NTFS for
NT4 and FAT32 for windows 98 SE.
I have read the
installation manual for Debian and the 'Installing a new operating system'
section of the partition magic manual.
No matter how I
partition/set up my drive I or where I create the partition (I have tried
primary and logical) get the same error when running the boot.bat file on the
Installation CD.
Kernel Panic: Cannot
Mount Volume.
then the machine
stops. The system reports the drive type/technology and the partitions
correctly.
I do just before
that get an Adaptec 7000 not found message (I do not have any SCSI adapteros in
the machine.
Could someone please
tell me what (apart from still using Microsoft software) what I am doing wrong
as I am struggling alot.
Best regards,
Paddy
