I'm here because I am a
to linux.
First I want to give a little back ground to show where I am at with this. My primary purpose with my hone systems and here at the linux questions is to learn.
I have loaded a few distros from cd and running from cd played around a little. I have loaded Suse 10.2 successfully on a system. I am still playing with it. I got Mandriva working somewhat. I am also pretty good with that other operating system. I want to get away from that and get with the program! or operating system as the case may be! hahaha
I have a computer that I built and want to eventually set up as a home office networking server. After working at a few installs I decided I should go the rout of Debian. The reason being, its a good basic place to start.
Anyway, during Debian install I went with
install acpi=off This got the install pretty far along. With acpi on it locks up.
So where I am and what I need help with it this:
Check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules Is /dev
Alert! /dev/mapper/office-root does not exist. Dropping to shell!
When it comes to text I am lost and in need of guidance. I am not sure what this means. I end up with a blinking curser.
Thanks
