Installation problems
Dear All,
I am trying to set up Debian 3.1r1 (Sarge) on a box with an
Intel D945GNT motherboard and twin 3.2GHz processors and 1Gb of
memory. It has two SATA disc drives. Unfortunately, none of the
peripherals is recognised - not the network cards, nor the two disc
drives. I've tried booting with the 2.6 kernel (2.4 is the default, I
think - tried that first) and, based on some advice from mailing
lists, declared less memory (500M in this case). None of these things
has worked. There is also no floppy on this system, only a CD drive.
The system boots, ready for installation, from the CD, but then,
nothing can be seen ("No media to partition" is the final message).
Any ideas would be welcome. Thank you.
