Package: debian-installer
Severity: important
Hello,
I am installing Debian Wheezy from a mini iso on an USB thumb drive
(sda) to internal SATA harddisk (sdd). sdb and sdc are possibly
non-existent floppies or something.
When I get to installing grub the installer insists on installing to sda
which
- is bogus because I need the bootloader on sdd which has the system on
it
- fails because sda does not have a PC partition table
Please make Debian installeble from USB thumb drive.
Thanks
