Hi Everybody
1-
This is the first time that I am trying to install the Debian GNU/Linux
(from Infomagic 6 CD set April 1997), but after 3 times installation I
couldn't create the boot floppy. Each time I receive the following messages:
Verifying track 0 (up to 79)
Formatting track 0 (up to 79) head 0,1
Creating a file system on the floppy ...
sbin/dinstall: Can not create /dev/fd0: read only file system
Something went wrong ....
My floppy is not write protected and I have formatted and changed the floppy
each time. Even I changed the permission of /dev, /dev/fd0, /target/dev, and
/target/dev/fd0 so that user, group, other had rw permission.
How can I fix this problem?
2-
My cdrom is Mitsumi FX-125 ATAPI. When I installed Redhat and
Slackware I chose ATAPI from the option list and everything worked fine.
Which option should I choose in Debian?
3-
The only installation documents that I have are:
-- Installing Debian GNU/Linux 1.2 from Floppy Disk
-- Debian Linux Installation & Getting Started, by: Boris D. Beletsky
-- Deselect documentation for beginners.
-- Debian FAQ
Are there some other documents for installing debian especially from CD?
I have already read "8.4 How do I get and install the Debian from CD-ROM?"
in FAQ but there is nothing about this.
4-
I want to install the kernel version 2.0.29 or higher during installation.
How can I do this?
5-
How can I install some of the RPM packages from Redhat in Debian?
Is it possible at all?
Thanks
