Hi,
I'm having a few problems getting debian woody to install:
(using bf24)
1.) it can't see the onboard LAN. The motherboard is a Shuttle AN35N
Ultra, and the LAN is Realtek 8201BL. I tried to look for a driver,
assuming it was something obscure. According to the manufacturer
(Realtek), there is no driver needed, because 8201BL is only a PHY chip,
whereas the driver goes with the MAC chip, which is probably embedded
in the chipset. (I'm not sure exactly what that means, I just read it on
their site). Presumably this means I need a driver for the nVidia chipset?
I wouldn't know what to get or how to use it. Shuttle does have some
drivers for their MBs, including a disc they shipped with my MB, but
they're for windows.
2.) I thought I'd just install of the CDs to get it running, and then hunt
around for any missing drivers. But the CD drive has problems when I try
to get the packages off it. I get this error message:
hdc: cdrom_decode_status: status=0x51 {DriveReady SeekComplete Error}
hdc: cdrom_decode_status: error=0x30
(repeat a few times)
hdc: ATAPI reset complete
end_request: I/O error, dev 16:00 (hdc) sector (some number)
The drive is a lite-on DVD+RW. It also works fine to boot from, just not
to read off the packages.
Incidentally, I had this same problem installing debian on another
computer, but that computer had a working network connection, so I just
installed from that. After installation, the CD drive worked fine after
that.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Maurice
