Back Hello all,
I'm using a laptot (Acer aspire 1355LM), which has an internal DVD (pionner). This DVD is broken so I have to do the installation from an external USB NEC DVD-RW.
The installation process starts without problems from that, I can see the boot screen, press intro and kernel boots up. I can see a text message "Loading ohci1394 driver", after that I have to select a language, after that I select keyboard type and here comes the problem, installation request me to select "the installation method", obviously I select CD/DVD and installation program says "CD not found". It is trying to find the DVD into the broken pionner DVD (a message "trying to mount /dev/hdc" can be seen in one of the messages screens ALT+F3) and I don`t know how to make it to look for DVD in external NEC DVD.
I've tried to boot in expert mode, boot: expert
but I couldn`t find a command shell anywhere. I've also tried to load usbcore and/or usb_storage at booting time with module=usbcore module=usb_storage but it didn't work.
Any ideas??
Thanks a lot.
Gustavo.
