Greetings:I have just received a Dell Inspiron 530N pre-installed with Ubuntu. I am now trying to figure out how to install debian on it. When I try to boot my Debian LiveCD (20070716-07:09) I am getting an error message similar to :*"can't access tty; job control turned off" *does anyone have a clue what this means? Any help you can give me I would appreciate. Thanks Mike
Lots of hits on googling the error messages... didn't read enough to see any hard-and-fast solutions, though.
Here's one link that has lots of info... <http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/ binsh-cant-access-tty-job-control-turned-off-474493/ ?s=9c49a645364350a283d4bb17b2135688>Just out of curiosity, is your boot order "CDROM, Harddisk," or is your LiveCD somehow trying to boot through the Grub that's installed on the harddisk?
