Re: Installing Debian
Did I neglect to mention that I also tried "rescue root="? Well, that's my
problem that I didn't mention it, I guess.
I tried linux root= because I noted that "linux" was specified as the
default argument, and thought that might work. I've tried both. Let me
re-iterate that: I've tried both.
Oh, and that I'm installing from a hard drive partition because there's a
section in the Debian installation manual that says "Installing from an
existing linux partition".
If it said "YOU SHOULD ONLY INSTALL FROM FLOPPIES OR YOU'RE A LOSER",
perhaps I would have elected to install from floppy images. Perhaps I still
will, if you're at all representative of the helpfulness of people on this
list.
