Hi,
The install program is unable to install the rescue floppy on my computer
(perhaps a corrupted cd?). I could work around this by copying the
rescue.bin to a floppy and do a disk install.
The last path you gave is the right one. It should be there.
Hope it helps,

This sounds familiar, so here is my experience using libranet.com, a debian
2.2 distro bought directly from Libranet. It seems that support at Libranet
correctly diagnosed this as a hardware problem.

Current stable versions of Debian won't install on AHA2940s as I have found

I just went through problems with the CD-ROM during install myself. I was
trying to install the Debian O'Reilly\SGI\VA Linux distribution. The boot

Dpkg itself doesn't need to know the `proper' (long) name of the
package, but the frontends to it (dselect, apt) may.
You can use wildcards with dpkg. e.g., "dpkg -i *" will try to install
all the packages in the current working directory, "dpkg -i */*.deb"
will attempt to install all the .deb fi
Tell dpkg about them at the same time.
You could have done:
dpkg -i g++* libstdc++*
Since they are already installed, do:
dpkg --configure --pending
or
dpkg --configure g++ libstdc++2.9-dev

Thanks for the tip. These disks didn't work, but there was another link to
someone
else who had come up with the solution. This one worked for me. (I don't have

The problem is a conflict between the aic7xxx driver for the 2940 card

See http://www.debian.org/~adric/aic7xxx/slink/5.1.15/
for a set of install rescue and driver disks which should get you over

Try putting the line:

Then run /usr/sbin/lilo, and reboot.

Hi Richard, I loaded the base debian on 14" floppys to my old
laptop and it went smooth and worked. I am sure the rescue disk has gzip
