Comments/Problems:
<
Would not DHCP correctly until I booted with Knoppix and it created a lease
file. I could see the requests on the DHCP server, looked like the MAC address
was incremented by 1 from what it really was?? Very strange. There are two NICs
on this MB - the first one is nvidia and the second Broadcom
From Tyan's web site :
• One Broadcom BCM5705 GbE LAN (G2NR)
- One RJ-45 LAN connector with LEDs
• One Marvell 88E1111 GbE PHY
- One RJ-45 LAN connectors with LEDs
I don't think this is correct?? etho is a nvidia ck804 and the one that will
work (after there is a lease file) and eth1 is the broadcom that would never
work. Note they are listing the Marvell as PHY instead of a Lan device --
see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PHYceiver
I'm not sure I understand - could be two physical devices for the same eth0???
The drivers seem to be forcedeth and tg3

Could be that the nvidia part just bridges the Broadcom controller with the PHY
interface chip?? There is a bridge enabled setting in the BIOS.
Next error:
Would not boot from the SATA CD/DVD plextor drive (px-755SA) - not a big deal -
so I put in an older IDE drive for now. (note not a problem in Knoppix 4.0)
I was setting up a RAID system - on retries it failed to see the raids?? I
would then go to create the raid and it would say there were no partitions
available send me back to the main partition menu and the raids would be there
but would need to be reconfigured. I turned the BIOS raid off and wanted to use
md software raid - many reasons to do this.
Next error:
On installation of base system it would complain that there was no /proc - I
created one by hand and that error went away.
Next error:
It would fail at installing base-passwd - complains about missing file or
directory during a tar. I checked and all the mount points were there and all
the directories used exist?? This one Is the show stopper for me - any hints??
Next error:
Would not create a /dev/sdxx for a usb drive I was going to use to transfer
error logs from. I used ssh instead.
Comment:
IMHO it would seem like a good idea to have a build version in the name of the
ISO. A Install report script might also be a good idea.
If I can be of help with further testing let me know - I don't have this one up
and running yet.
