Hi

I posted before a week ago, but got no response, so I try again with a
slightly different angle.

I do not have acces to a dvd-writer. Is it possible to install 64 studio
from something else? If so, where can I read about how to do that?

Thanks in advance for any response.

The Debian Installer can also be booted from floppies, usb sticks,
hard drives with grub/lilo, the network and Windows installations:

http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch05.html.en
http://goodbye-microsoft.com/

Dunno if 64studio supports all these options though.

Yes, everything is supported. I would suggest USB stick.

Ciao,

Ok, I'll try that route one of the next days. It seems to be exactly the
same as http://www.64studio.com/node/262 which I already tried.

Maybe you could comment on my post on 2008-05-02, and see if I did
anything wrong, or something is out of sync in the 64studio iso (from
debian installer) that makes it impossible.

Short recap of the problem (from my previous post):

When the installer looks for the build-in, non-wlan ethernet card, I get
an error about module mismatch or missing modules or something, and the
installler basically tells me that this is not gonna work out. I guess
the initrd.gz (which AFAIK contains the modules, or???) from the debian
installer is out sync with the 64studio-live_2.0_i386.iso.

This seems to be for windows users, right (at least it downloads an
.exe)? I don't have windows, so I guess that's not for me...

The specific error would be helpful. More details about your system
might be helpful.

These instructions are for installing Debian Etch, which you can then
convert to 64Studio. Did you perhaps use the 64Studio ISO instead of
the Debian one?

There are a couple of links in the post:
http://www.64studio.com/node/262

which one did you use? The http://d-i.pascal.at/ site lists two
different methods, did you follow one of these? If so which one?

Is your motherboard capable of booting from USB?

No idea. I have never seen this before.

OK! I think I know what your problem might be.

The live iso is NOT an installer image. You have to use the other one.
http://cdd.64studio.com/releases/64studio/64studio_2.1rc2_i386.iso

Try it and let us know...

Yep, it is a simple GUI to setup the Windows bootloader so that it
loads the netboot images of the Debian installer. Basically a
clicky-clicky wrapper around wget + echo >> C:oot.ini, plus some
pre-seeding of locale and other information.

I used "the one called" 64studio_2_0_i386.iso. I thought that was the
installer...

I will...

Hi Atte,

Yes, it is - I think you referred to the Live CD in an earlier mail.

I suspect this a problem with the driver for your specific ethernet
card, as the installer is able to start. See the thread here, which
concerns the Lenny installer on the same Ethernet chipset:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2008/04/msg00468.html

Cheers!

Daniel
