Fail to install debian on PARISC C110

2006-07-20 Thread vincent young
Hi,
I tried to install using the debian installation CD,
it works fine but only after selecting the languages
and territory, then when it reaches the detecting CD
ROM drive, it will cause a crash when it is looking
for a Zalon7xx , Zalon Scsi module and always at 89%.

I hope someone can help me with this.

Thank you.

Best regards,
Vincent.

Try installing at medium priority (add 'debconf/priority=medium' to the 
boot parameters) and deselect the offending module during hardware 
detection for the CD drive.
That is assuming that you don't actually need the zalon module of course.

I'm afraid the c110 doesn't have PCI and thus does in fact require the
Zalon driver (GSC bus support for Symbios 53c7x0 SCSI controller).

Any chance more info could be posted to the parisc-linux.org mailing list?
parisc-linux.org has a How to report Kernel bugs page that tells
which info would be helpful.

thanks,
