At which time does your CD-ROM vanish, during installs, or after? Can you elaborate a little more verbose on the symptoms and your attempts? Do you use the kernel shipped with Debian or a home grewn one? Greetings Helge
Helge, thanks for your reply.I am using the iso image, kernel 0, graphics kernel, generic, that is on the first disk.
I have not looked in /proc/IDE, I will do that and see what I can find,The error messages all referred to not being able to find the disk, attempting to read beyond the end of the disk, and so on. I will see what I can do to collect the error message and post it.
I apologize for my brevity, I am usually the guy who finds the thing that everyone else knows NOT to do!
