That is a nightly build.

Try the sarge/stable installer for something permanent.

Same problem.
I solved starting the installer with 
linux debian-bootstrap/framebuffer=false

No - blacklist 1394 modules didn't solve problem. Thank you for your response!

Good news:
Tyan updated bios - afterwards no problem to boot 
kernel-image-2.6-amd64-generic! YESs!

Then I tried an old installer downloaded 24.06.2005 
(debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso) from http://cdimage.debian.org. Installer 
working great! So making a fuss of caused by bad bios - sorry.

Bad news:
Today there is a new installer at http://cdimage.debian.org, but this one 
hangs during starting syslogd/klogd but being accessible on other tty's.

Regards,
Andreas

F***, no option to turn on that and no newer bios 
The error appears directly after:
"Setting up networking...done.
Starting hotplug subsystem:
pci
ip1394: $Rev: 1224 $ Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
ip1394: eth1: IEEE-1394 IPv4 over 1394 Ethernet (fw-host0)
Kernel panic: PCI-DMA: high address but no IOMMU"

If firewire causes this problem, I didn't load these module during 
installation with installer!

So, what to do?

MfG,
Andreas

Poke your bios. You want the PCI DMA in the lower 4GB ram.

I installed kernel-image-2.6-amd64-generic.
After rebooting: Kernel panic: PCI-DMA: high address but no IOMMU.

What is the next step? Reporting a bug? Or do you need more info?

Please install the kernel-image-2.6-amd64-generic on your i386 sarge
system and reboot into that. I expect the same behaviour (freezing) to
happen then, which would make it a kernel problem.

If on the other hand the kernel and networking works then a Installer
bug is more likely.

Installer dies during local network installation

2005-06-15 Thread Andreas Klein
Hi,

I try to install amd64-sid on my brand new Tyan K8E (S2865). Nforce4 chipset 
wih 2Gb LAN-Adaptors, one Broadcom BMC5721 GbE, one Marvell 88E-CAA.

I went on with the "expert" option. The installation process proceed until the 
network is alredy configured and the installer ask for confirmation for eth0 
configuration. After confirming, installer dies. No response from system.

I tried out:
http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/debian-installer/2005-06-13/netboot/mini.iso
http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/sid_d-i/amd64/20050605/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso

Next step was to add a standard 3com NIC (3c95x) and only use these module. No 
chance. Same behavior!

Last step was to try the i386-sarge installer 
(http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/).
 
Everything fine! Working great. BUT it's an AMD64 and I want to have that!

Any help?

Regards,
Andreas Klein
