I am trying to install debian on an old hp vectra. The (testing) install goes along fine, finding the nic and downloading stuff from the network but then it reports that it can't find any partitionable media. Well, there is a 1.7 gig hard drive that currently has a stripted win95 on it.
Could there be some hardware mod I need to make or is the install program at fault? There was a report-hw program in /bin that I piped through more. It found lots of things but stopped when it couldn't find hdparm. I'm using install floppies dated 8-1-2004.
