Hi all! I'm trying to re-install my Debian on this laptop (an Acer Aspire One) to use it as a server. I just tried this wiki [1] and I can't get it working at all (I substituted the older and non-existing files for newer ones and Debian 5.0.5 netinstall by a actual testing one. Result: after selecting the USB drive on the BIOS, a permanent black screen with its little blinking cursor. After that, I configure my desktop with a DHCP server to try a PXE installation: I get the Debian Installer working: I was able to select the language, country, Debian repository... but it cannot detect my hard disk (d-i asks me for the driver of my non-detected HDD, which I don't know). I don't remember having this issues when I forst installed Debian on this laptop in the past. P.S. The PXE boot image that I've tried is an sid one. Anybody knows how can I install Debian from scratch? Best regard and thanks in advance [1] http://wiki.debian.org/DebianAcerOne
