This is in the current boot and installer that I used from floppies. I downloaded the rescue and root images on 8/8/01 and used them to make the boot floppies for installation I was trying to install a new clean version of woody off the net. After partitioning and formatting the disks I selected the Install the Base System option. I selected the network option and selected the woody install and the path points to: http://http.us.debian.org/debian When I say ok for the install I get the error: debootstrap exited abnormally sigh. Not very helpful I'm sure. I have my network configured properly, as the installer has already downloaded the driver and rescue portions successfully.

Re: Why msdos and not vfat?

Why do most archs use msdos.o and only ia64 vfat.o?
I did make a patch for this a long time ago to use vfat.o if present
and fallback to msdos.o. Seems like nobody bothered to check that in.
I think you mean something like the attached. I mentioned this also in
another thread.

Problem with Debian installation
Hi, I'm a network and system engineer and I have to install debian on a computer that have an array scsi Adaptec 2100s that is not supported by the debian installation CDs. I asked the driver code to the Adaptec, they sent me the code and I compile a new kernel. I booted the computer from a boot floppy with the new kernel and the driver worked, but I need a faster installation procedure because I've a lot of machine to prepare that have the same hardware. I thought to prepare a new installation CD with the new kernel. So I downloaded the last debian installation CD image (rev 3) from the site and I substituted the kernel in the rescue.bin images included in the image downloaded. To change the kernel I have copied the data on the iso9660 image on another file system, I mounted the /boot/rescue.bin on a directory, I substituted the kernel (replacing the file linux) and then I executed syslinux on the rescue.bin modified. Afterwhose I executed the same operation on the others rescue.bin. (maybe at this step I've also to execute rdev on the rescue.bin???) To recreate the iso9660 image from the data modified I used the following command: mkisofs -a -A Installation CD -b boot/rescue.bin -d -J -L -N -o /tmp/binary-1.iso /tmp/newcdrom/cdrom/ Finally using the image I burned a CD and I inserted in the machine. The machine find the root.bin, and load it, then load the kernel, but a certain moment, before starting the installation menu, the booting stops and appear the message: kernel panic unable to mount 01:00. Anyone can tell me if this is the correct procedure or if there is a simpler method to install Debian on a machine that has hardware not supported by the installation CD? Thanks in advance to everyone that will answer my question..
