[plug] RE: Constant rebooting while installing Debian 2.1?

[Matt Bruce]

Hi all,

Thanks to Nick and Matt for replying regarding my notebook Debian
installation problem. The "resc1440tecra.bin" disk worked first pop. It let
me install what I needed, the PCMCIA NIC drivers worked fine and I completed
the remainder of the install with NFS without a hitch.

I did my usual trick I think -- forgot the obvious and started looking too
deep.  :)

Catcha,

Matt
