> try booting installation with "linux noauto" Now got a slightly different error, but it makes more sense! in second stage install unable to open "/proc/bus/pci/devices" You may have passed a wrong argument to the "-p" option. fopen() sets errno to: No such file or directory install exited abnormally :-( etc Well, the 'Shuttle' devices only have two PCI slots, both of which are empty on my machine. Not sure if the Onboard sound and NIC are 'PCI' devices... Andy

Ever since Promise appeared it has become obvious that Linux has to get away from absolute drive location naming and only name (hd?) devices in the order in which they are actually encountered, like Windows does.

[Cooker] Install problem with ATA/100
Hello, There is a bug in the Mandrake 8.0 installation. The bug: the installation uses a 2.2 kernel, while 8.0 is on 2.4 Why this matters: I have an Asus P2BF with two onboard controllers and a Promise Ultra 100 with the second onboard disabled. With 2.2 it's like this: onboard 1: hda, hdb promise 1: hde, hdf promise 2: hdg, hdh With 2.4 it's like this: onboard 1: hda, hdb promise 1: hdc, hdd promise 2: hde, hdf This results in a kernel panic on first boot. Need to boot using root= and edit lilo.conf and fstab manually. Second problem with the Promise Ultra 100 is that it needs ide3=noautotune (which has my cd-rom on it). Otherwise, it results in read errors on the cdrom and segmentation faults in rpm installations. Kind regards, Mark Wormgoor

[Cooker] A Cooker install problem
Hi All, I am trying out Cooker. For that purpose i created a local copy of the cooker files from ftp.ciril.fr (used fmirror). So far so good. I shared this data out on my network with nfs (ro). When i now try and install it on a clean machine from scratch using the network.img floppy i run into problems when the installation of the packages starts. On the first 8 packages being installed i get the error mesage 'unable to read header of package ...'. The packages affected are: setup-2.1.9-13mdk filesystem-1.3.5-2mdk ldconfig-1.3.5-19mdk glibc-2.1.3-7mdk bdflush-1.5-15mdk cracklib-2.7-11mdk ctags-3.5.1-5mdk e2fsprogs-1.18-5mdk (I checked the rpm files and they seem to be ok) After that the errormessage is 'warning: missing header at /usr/bin/perl-install/pkgs.pm line 149.'. On the graphical screen there is now the message of an error and installation is halted. If i click ok on the error message i get back to the package selection screen. Anyone any clue ?

[Cooker] install problem
Not sure if this is an existing bug or not but I did an install on a machine with a Matrox g100 card in it and on the easy install it got to configuring X and looped on could not install XFree86 - RPM. I can recreate it and get the exact error if this is not an already known problem. I did the expert install and told it not to autodetect the card and that worked fine but during the easy install it would not and the only option that seemed to work was to click exit install. From the same ISO I did an install on a Banshee card and that worked flawlessly so appears to be specific to this card at least. It is a Matrox Millenium 4mb agp card with the latest bios loaded from Matrox. regards, Christopher
