Package: installation-report Severity: normal
I installed etch on an old pc, using manual partitioning. I selected an existing NTFS partition (/dev/hda1) as ext3 root filesystem. The partition was formatted, and installation went ok until installation of grub. Grub-install could not install stage1 on /dev/hda. Lilo-install worked. After rebooting I ran fdisk and learned that the partion type of /dev/hda1 was still NTFS (id=7). After setting the type to Linux (id=83) and rebooting I could install grub. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
