I have confirmed this behaviour on both standard Lenny ISOs and Squeeze
daily build ISOs. Steps to reproduce:
1. Download a Lenny or Squeeze ISO (businesscard is fastest, but same occurs
with netinst or full CD images)
2. In Win32, mount the ISO in a vi

Hi folks,
I'm looking for a workaround for a kernel hang with this message:
"Marking TSC unstable due to: TSC halts in idle."
I've googled for this error and it appears to be non-fatal for other
people (a delay but not a hang). For me it hangs altogether. Is there a

Hi folks,
I have one of these systems (the Silicon Image 'medley' variant). I
installed Sarge manually back in Jan 05 - before dmraid made it into Debian
- using 2.4.27's medley.o (dbugs 286939, 291928, 292221, 292968).
