Hi Christian Thank you for your response.

I have udevd proces running, I just have the debian sarge defaultsKnown issue :-( Package "udev" will get installed with the "desktop" task. This can break things on "/dev". To fix this you have to at least reboot after installation once more. There is currently work in progress on this issue, so could you try a daily build, or at least RC3 (when out) and report back?
I have not heard of this "desktop" task, would you be able to direct me to some documentation about it please?
I have rebooted several times since instalation.
Sorry I do not have time to re-install with RC3, it has taken weeks to get the system to a state I am happy with, I would rather not loose that.
I wonder if you could explain the RC3 revisions to me which might fix the SATA / IDE DVD-Writer problem I am experiencing please?
< ... >My CD/DVD-Writer was not identified by debian-installer. So I manuallyOk, sorry not to include that info in my first post. I did not know ide-scsi is deprecated, all my google searches uncovered suggestions to use ide-scsi. Could you direct me to some info which tells me a better way to set up my IDE NEC CD/DVD writer please..?To get better SATA support you have to install with "linux26" or "expert26" on the installation boot prompt, instead of only pressing <Return>.
Could you try this also and report back?
This is how I did the install in January. As the netinst ISO did not setup an optimal kernel, post install I switched to 2.6.8-2-k7
