Need help with NetInstall on Compac Presario 1200
I have done several netinstalls on desktop boxes, but this
is my first attempt on a laptop. The problem seems to be
related to sound, but I'm not sure. What happens is:
Everything seems to happen normally when the netinstall CD is in
use. Discover seems to do its thing. Normal mode and expert mode both
work as I would expect from privious work. But when I remove the CD
and reboot, the boot process hangs. The last line in the progress
report is:
ac97_codec: AC97 Audio codec, id: ADS64 (Analog Devices AD1881)
This has happened several times, with both grub and lilo. I have
looked for a way to disable sound, hoping that this would get
me past this block, but can't find anything.
Suggestions?
