cd-rom problems
I've been having troubles installing debian on my system. If I run
boot.bat from \boot it starts the installation just fine, but then when
it reboots for the first time to install the packages using dselect it
can't find my cdrom. My cdrom is an LG Electronics/Goldstar 8160B 16X
IDE on the secondary IDE channel as master and it is all alone on the
cable. If I create boot diskettes using resc1440.bin, I can use my
cd-rom. From chatting on #debian on irc.debian.org it seems to be a
kernel problem. Is there any way of fixing this so that when i boot
from my hard drive i can gain access to my cd-rom to complete the
installation?
By loooking at /var/log/messages it seems that boot isn't finding my
secondary pci ide channel.
