Re: Installation of woody fails (corrupted deb)



I used the nonus disk for mine and it went fine so far as to reboot and
start the next stage of the install.  I just have to figureout how to get
the keyboard working again... (I had a serial cable attached to a network
terminal server and now the keyboard stops working somewhere during the
boot / startup process { I think it's trying to use the serial port but I
haven't had time to trouble shoot that far }... any idea's welcomed.
