Base System Installation Checklist:

Reboot:                 [E] 5)

Comments/Problems:

this is the same machine as #242659 *)
unfortunately ended again without a working os on it.

1) detecting network loads module DAC960
   don't know how that raid controller helps for networking?
   anyway everything dead, last thing i could do was to change
   consoles without seeing any grave message, i assume kernel panic
   -> please blacklist that controller for network detection.
   rebooted with DEBCONF_PRIORITY=3Dmedium to not load that module

2) another error while installing the base system on a clean target:
   "couldn't download dpkg"
   the dhcpd daemon of that ass slow network is configured with
   "renewal in 150 seconds" so that may have interferred.
   on the next run i had more luck regarding network.

3) install the base system fails after 70% because of apt-utils
   vc3 shows:
   Errors were encountered while processing: apt-utils
   umount: /target/dev/pts: No such file or directory
   umount: /target/dev/shm: No such file or directory
   umount: /target/proc/bus/usb: Invalid argument

   changed to vc2, chrooted into /target, cd /var/cache/apt/archives,
   dpkg -i *deb
   apt-get install aboot libdb4.2 kernel-image-2.4.26-generic

4) boot loader menu entry jumps back to base-install instaed of calling
   swriteboot witch correct arguments:
   tried to install aboot from debian main-menu,
   that asked if i want to proceed on an unclean base install,
   which i thought to have cured above somehow, but arrrgh
   it brings me back to 3)
   redone aboves steps then outside of chroot:
   sbin/swriteboot -c1 dev/sda boot/bootlx
   (hmm it's a wild guess but seems to work somehow,=20
    stumbeled a bit but /dev/sda seemed not to exist only above /target)
   edited /etc/aboot.conf to reflect the root partition on 1 partition.
  =20
5) boot fails on kernel panic unable to mount root=3D/dev/sda1
   when entering aboot, a quick 'l' lists aboot.conf entries
   choosing 1 boots up the kernel, but
   Please append a correct "root=3D" boot option
   kernel panic: vfs unable to mount root fs on 08.01
   also treid with bootargs=20
   devfs=3Dmount,dall root=3D/dev/scsi/host0/bus/0/target0/lun0/partition1
   but same result.


 hope that helps for further alpha development.
 best regards
 maks


*) i will close that bug report,
   as scsi disc were recognised after boot (no need to mount)=20
   those base system trouble were cured,
   and the menu entry of aboot showed up.
