The installation itself seems to work fine, but when it boots after, it can't find the root partition. I don't know if it's because the kernel doesn't have the SCSI driver I need, or if I'm running into the issue listed on the errata: Disk devices may change on reboot On systems with multiple diskcontrollers, the kernel/udev may assign a different device node on reboot of the system than was used during installation due to difference in load order of drivers. This can lead to failure to boot the system. In most cases this can be rectified changing the bootloader configuration and /etc/fstab, possibly using the rescue mode of the installer. Note however that this problem may occur again on subsequent boots. Fixing this issue has priority for the next release of Debian installer. Is this something I should be reporting here, or to Debian? _______________________________________________ parisc-linux mailing list parisc-linux@lists.parisc-linux.org http://lists.parisc-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/parisc-linux
