Re: [Cooker] Beta 1 - install problems

[pablito]

same thing happened when I tried to install from the hard disk.
advansys controllers are very common inexpensive scsi boards...

also (a minor bug) unlike 7.2, the install doesn't recognize a usb mouse
from the beginning.  You have to boot up with the usb mouse plugged into
another port with an adapter, or use two mice until the installation
installs the usb ports.

How much of the new system can be gotten by upgrading off the cds?

it installs fine but then when I try to boot it up off grub it ends in a
kernel panic.

It said that the linux system was on sda4 (windows is on sda1) so I changed
the command line to sda5 and the same thing happened.  I thought the second
sda partition was sda5.

tried installing again using lilo as the boot select and its the same
thing...
messages immediately before the kernel panic mention that there is some
problem with the advansys module (scsi driver).  Does anyone know what is
going on?  The advansys driver worked fine during the install.
