I'm trying to install debian on a GA-965P-DQ6 motherboard with a
linksys usb wifi adapter. When the install comes to the point of
detecting and mounting the CD-Rom it fails and tells me that it
couldnt find the CD-Rom. I think its doing this because the ide
drives are controlled by the SCSI2 board. I downloaded a copy of
Ubuntu (because thats all that I have seen people succesfully install
with that motherboard). On the Ubuntu install it detects the CD-Rom
without a problem, but it fails on the network detect. I would much
rather use debian than a debian base. So I was wondering if anyone
could point me in the right direction as to how I would work around
the the SCSI2 controller. If I need to I can run an ethernet cable to
the onboard ethernet port. If I forgot to give some information that
is needed before anyone can help me please let me know and I'll post
it soon as possible.


A few suggestions:

Use a daily-build Etch.

Read the installation manual.

Google the lists.debian.org and see if its been discussed.

Subscribe to the debian-boot list.

Submit an installation report whether it works or not. Especially if
not. Your report will be sent to the debian-boot list by the BTS.

Good luck.

Doug.
