2005-08-15 Thread Host Master
Sorry this is all Greek to me, I am very new to Linux world. I've Been
sucked into the Windows vortex and am trying to get out. I have no idea of
the difference between Sarge or daily built and don't know what linux26 is.

You don't say if you are using the official Sarge images or the daily 
built images.

If you used the Sarge images, did you try booting the installation system 
with 'linux26'?

It is an invitation to type  'linux26' before you hit enter.
(the default is 'linux',  see also the splash screen at very first
CD-ROM boot ( and press F2 function keys ) )

SATA optical drives are not supported yet as far as I am aware.  Does it
work if you use the DVD rom only and remove the SATA plextor?
