Hello everyone. I have tried via IRC to get help from both
#debian and #linuxhelp, on several servers to no avail
I am installing Debian 2.1...the initial install goes
fine. I reboot and then it runs the script to setup a connection, and then
dselect to allow the packages to be installed. Here is what is happening
though.
I tried using the program...it refused to recognize
/dev/cdrom...ok I back out...and try to mount the cdrom..error
message
mount: fs type iso9660 not supported by kernel.
So I download kernel 2.4.4, only to find out after the
fact the base install has not included "make"...I am back to square one.
During installation when selecting the modules to be added
to the kernel there is not any listing for iso9660. I have tried manually
forcing it to use the regular cdrom drivers(which is states is installed
automatically)..
How can I force the boot install from cdrom to include the
iso9660 so I can use dselect to install the packages? I don't have a fast
connection or I would just download potato...that would take days at
28.8
I need to get this up and happening since I want to use
debian for my lab when I am ready to do the linux 101 cert..
Thanks,
Mel
