Re: How to install Debian with Promise FastTrak 376 chip onboard?

["Danny" <PhotoDannyNo@SpamHotmail.com>]

Hi Antony,

you are the man, which saved me! Install with the help of your webpage was
easy and fast and the installer detected my harddisk (no raid). But now
after reboot, I can't boot. Grub crashes and showed only the Grub prompt at
the bottom of the screen.

How can I boot with your driver?

Thanx in advance,

Danny
