Hi, and happy new year to all :-)
>I've updated the NETINST image [1] now: > >- made some silo improvements for d-i [2] >- disabled GPG verification for the archive in the code I've attempted an install on an Ultra-2 today, auto detection of network hardware and disks failing, but manually selecting the drivers went OK. With preseeding, I was able to select debian-ports as package source. Then it didn't went so well. - partitioning was OK, creating filesystems on the new partitions hangs after 33%. Even on this system, where SUN slices are the right partition scheme for the boot disks. I was able to create the filesystem from an older installation and do the target selection in the new installer afterwards. So, the partitions are setup OK. - the installer went ahead downloading, but failed to find a kernel for installation. Manually installing it in the target via chroot works. That's where I have to stop now, getting hungry :-) HTH, Uli -- Dipl. Inf.
