When we last left our hero, he was trying to install Debian onto a machine with no floppy or CD drive, but with a working Red Hat installtion....
Thanks to this list, I was able to get good instructions on how to do a cross-install using a chroot jail. I tried them, and things went well, up to the point were I actually tried to boot into the new Debian installation. When I tried to boot, the only thing that happened was the computer beeped at me and then rebooted. Obviously, something went wrong, but I don't know what. I was using GRUB as the bootloader, and I pointed it at the /boot directory on the Debian partition. It seemed to locate the kernel I specified correctly. (Specifying it wrong gave me a different error.) I'm also using a mini-itx motherboard, if that makes a difference. Can anyone give me an idea of what went wrong? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
