Bug#601174: installation-reports: Mostly success with XFCE netinst 2010-10-19-5
Quoting Daniel Dickinson (dan...@cshore.neomailbox.net): The first issue is that the console-setup(?) asked what do do with the keymap (keep, set, leave as it, etc) which was confusing since I had set the language an keyboard earlier We should document this in the errata, maybe. There are apparently situations where a second uestion is asked about keyboard The second issue was that SAMBA requested a WORKGROUP name. Well, that's expected behaviour. You did choose the File server task, right? signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Grub2 fails to boot from menu entry
Hello, I have grub2 as my bootloader with 2 entries for debian (normal + rescue), some entries for memtest and an entry for windows. If I boot and select one of the debian entries, it fails saying File not found (the kernel) and initrd also fails since it needs a kernel. When I go to the grub prompt and enter the following lines it works: linux /vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem root=UUID=14104ecd-4242-45b6-a02f-b2326ec34c54 initrd /initrd-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem boot But the menu entry in grub.cfg is essentially the same except the path to vmlinuz and initrd start with /boot/vmlinuz and /boot/initrd respectively. My boot partition is /dev/sda1 and my root partition is /dev/sda5. I've reinstalled grub-pc, grub-common and linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem and rebooted ... fail. How come that if I enter the commands at the grub prompt it works, but if I select it from the menu it fails? And more importantly, what to do about it?

The error you are getting is a failure to download the Release file from the mirror you are using. Are you able to check if the network is working? Any suspicious message on the 2nd terminal window?
