Bug#284128: Second try, Grub and Lilo fails

2004-12-04 Thread Maxime GEORGE-BOURREAU
I tried a new install of Sarge RC2 on this laptop (Acer Aspire 1300) today.
I boot with option :
expert26 noscsi vga=792
Grub stops on message "Determining Grub boot device..." during several 
minutes, then I'm back to the main menu.
I tried to install Lilo on /dev/hda7, but lilo fails with error 1.
I don't want to install Lilo on /dev/hda MBR.

I can't test it now, because this bug only appear with my wireless pcmcia card, and 
I'm not in the right site.
The built-in ethernet interface (via rhine II) on eth0 is ok.

I got another bug with the new 2.6.6 kernel, report 252429

Everything else is ok for the moment (well, exim is very slow to start, and I don't 
know how to tune it, so I switched to postfix).

Sincerely

(Same trouble as installation reports 241790)

(Note : the pcmcia wireless card is the only network card of this computer).

Comments/Problems:

1. Initial boot screen doesn't display properly (many sort of shadow lines). But 
pressing the F1 key makes display looks correctly.

2. I did base-config before reboot the computer. The cursor and the option selector 
didn't show correcty.
When I pressed UP key, the option selector disappears,
when I pressed DOWN key, the option selector shows correctly.

3. After complete install, I need to perform each time I boot
ifdown eth1
and
ifup eth1
In order to get my wireless lan card works fine.
cardmgr or dhclient seems to have trouble during the boot process.

The problem is the same with a 2.4.25 or a 2.6.3 kernel.

However, during the install stage, the network works fine (was able to download from 
debian server).

4. I need to install kernel-image-2.6.3-k7 in order to have cpufreq
(Not really a problem).
