I am a first time installer of Debian Linux 2.0 with Win 98 on the
computer.
What to I enter when on the installation program so I can get Emacs, X
etc. when installing from
the Binary i386 CD I read:
Insert the CD Rom with the block device name:
I enter:
/dev/hda3, (have tried /dev/hda4 & /dev/hda5 with similar results)
I get:
Wrong FS type bad option and super block ON /dev/hda3
I am using a Pentium 2, 300 MHz, 64 Mb ram, 6.4 Gb HD and an IDE CD-Rom
on
the secondary (primary) IDE port.
Again, What to I enter when on program installation I read:
Insert the CD Rom with the block device name:
--------------------------
Each physical drive gets its own device, for instance:
your first HD /dev/hda
/dev/hda1 = first partition
/dev/hda2 = second partition
your second HD or CDROM /dev/hdb
if your second hd is a cdrom there is only one partition. Thus
there is numberes following the drive.
I hope that this helps
