    Package: installation-reports

    Debian-installer-version: rc1


    uname -a:
    Date: 2004-08-12
    Method: network installation (dhcp3 / tftpd) via serial


    Machine: HP 9000 Model A180
    Processor: PA-RISC
    Memory: 224M
    Root Device: SCSI
    Root Size/partition table:
    I tried both single partition and seperate /home options with
    the same results (as detailed below)

    Base System Installation Checklist:

    Initial boot worked: [O]
    Configure network HW: [O]
    Config network: [O]
    Detect CD: [ ]
    Load installer modules: [O]
    Detect hard drives: [O]
    Partition hard drives: [O]
    Create file systems: [O]
    Mount partitions: [E]
    Install base system: [ ]
    Install boot loader: [ ]
    Reboot: [ ]
    [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it

    Comments/Problems:

    Machine formats all of the partitions. After completing the progress
    bar indicating the format of the / partition it clears the display and
    locks up. There is nothing on the screen when it freezes.

    In both single and seperate /home configurations all partitions are
    formatted before it locks up.

    Thanks
