Re: How to install Debian with Promise FastTrak 376 chip onboard?
Hi Nano Nano,
to supply a floppy during setup is no problem. There in the Debian 3
installer is an option "Preload modules from disk". And that is all I ask
for, the modules (binary device drivers for Promise FastTrak 376), so that I
can put it on disk, that the Installer detects my Promise FastTrak 376
controller.
