I have this line from http://lists.debian.org/debian-testing/2003/debian-testing-200311/msg00098.html >it have to include devfs=mount This got me through boot. My next problem was the resolv.conf was empty. No DNS server although my DHCP server provides it. I fixed that manually. Next it was whinning about not being able to find a CD-ROM, and it would not take "no" for an answer 8^). I got over that too. Now it is intalling.

2003-12-30 failure report
I cannot start debian installer over the network using the 2003-12-30 images. My pxeconfig for this is: LABEL Sarge KERNEL vmlinuz.sarge.i386 APPEND load initrd=netboot-initrd.sarge.i386.gz devfs=nomount ramdisk_size=8192 root=/dev/ram0 console=tty0 video=aty128fb I have added sarge.i386 to the names to distinguish them from other files, but they are copied straight from http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/unstable/main/installer-i386/20031230/images/ The kernel boots, but then stops with Warning: unable to open an initial console Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init. and the caps lock and scroll lock are flashing. I have tried with and without console=, video=, root= and devfs options. I have got woody installed on the machine. BTW the computer is a Compaq Deskpro EN Small Form Factor. florin -- Don't question authority: they don't know either! signature.asc Description: Digital signature
