Package: bootdisk Version: boot1440.bin (1996_7_14) The following happened twice on two different systems (a 486 and a P6) while attempting to make a fresh installation of Debian 1.1.7: When installing the kernel, I selected the module for nfs filesystem support. I was then asked to insert again the boot-disk, got a couple of error messages which went by too quickly to read (something 'unresolved'), and when attempting to include the module for nfs, it said: 'module symbols (2.0.6) do not match your linux (2.0.6)'. It seems to me that the modules on the boot-disk are broken.
(I was able to work around this problem by installing a kernel with full network support, which I needed for proceeding with the installation, by hand.) Further suggestion: It would be helpful for everybody to have a log-file of the installation process being generated automatically. -- Univ.-Doz. Dr. Anton Rebhan Inst. f. Theoret. Physik, Techn.
