Package: installation-reports Severity: important Boot method: CD Image version: debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso, 5/30/2008
Subject: order of IDE channels interchanged I tested installing the debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso (5/30/2008) on a double processor (Celeron 433) machine that uses two different IDE chipsets. Installation itself worked well but first rebooting failed after decompression of the kernel. The system hangs a few minutes after printing "Loading, please wait..." and aborts with a message that the root partition /dev/hde3 can not be found. Then an ash (initramfs) is invoked, so I could type a "dmesg" to see what happened. Obviously, the order of the IDE channels is interchanged as shown in the following table: during after installation reboot driver --------------------------------------- DVD Rom hda hde PIIX4 60GB HD hde hda HPT36x (3 partitions: swap, ext2 /boot, reiserfs /) 120GB HD hdg hdc HPT36x (2 partitions: swap, reiserfs /home) I used this computer for several years with a SuSE 8.2 installation, therefore I can nearly exclude a hardware or a BIOS failure. More information about the computer is appended. It was gained by using KNOPPIX 5.3 (same kernel line 2.6.24 as Lenny) and it detects the IDE channels correctly as during the installation mentioned above.
