RE: Debian 3.1 installation not detecting my hard drives =(



Hi,

Thanks for your reply Jorge, but I've already tried that ISO before and it's for the 3.0 Woody version of Debian.  However, I'm looking to install Sarge.  However, it did say on the site that it would work for Sarge as well, but I don't see how that would work.  Would I have to install Woody entirely, then upgrade to Sarge while preserving the kernel? Or is there an even better way than that?

Thanks


Glen

It said that no partitions were found and asked me to make sure I have the hardware connected.
