Betreff: [Devil-Linux-discuss] SATA CDROM boot problem?


DL 1.3.6-2008-08-28-i686-bs
Dell Vostro 200. Dual SATA hard drives and SATA CD-ROM drive.
I have a usb thumb drive for the configuration.

So DL boots and gets to the found empty ... media - /dev/sda1
Shall I copy .... to it? (y/n)
I hit y and it gives me yy.

Weird. So I let it say yy,(because hitting backspace makes them both
go away) hit enter,it beeps 3 times and I get:
 "Would you really like to load DL without Configuration Media?" (y/n)
then it drops down a line and says
Please insert configuration media and press 'Enter'
I can't get any farther.


So, I put an older config file on the usb to see what I get and it
says:


checking /dev/sda1.... wrong media
then it says
!!! Devil-Linux CD-ROM not found !!!
Please check your hardware!
Booting will not continue, you have to reset and try again.

A friend mentioned it might be a "DL doesn't like to be booted from a
sata cdrom drive problem".

Is that what I'm looking at or something else?
