Hello- I'm trying to do a net install of Debian on an HP Pavilion ZV5120US laptop. I've downloaded the latest stable version for this install. I get through the initial setup alright, but when I try to boot, I get a segfault and then an error: pivot_root: No such file or directory. I think this is a problem with the the hdd driver. It's IDE, so I would have thought it would be fine. Maybe there is something different with HP laptops. Anyway, as I understand it, initrd is mounting the root filesystem. If that's the case, then that's where the problem lies - initrd doesn't have a proper driver for the IDE controller. So I think I need the do the following: 1. find a driver for this laptop 2. modify initrd to load this driver before mounting the root filesystem Does this sound right? And does anyone have any suggestions or experience with this hardware? Thanks! Kevin -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
