Debian on a PowerEdge 1950

[Chris Knight]

Following a RAID card failure and the huge fiasco getting the parts from 
Dell I ended up re-loading Debian on one of the PE 1950's I have been 
working on.

I submitted a crib that if followed resolved the boot failure issue 
after the install.... However!  I must be either blind, stupid or both 
as the procedure I developed is not actually needed.

If you install Etch and go through the menus at the point where it 
installs the base system and selects the Kernel just select YAIRD for 
the boot loader at this point and whatever Kernel you choose, in my case 
it was 2.6.15-1-686.smp. Restart and its all go.

O.K. I must have just sailed past this point during the initial installs 
not even thinking as I don't normally use YAIRD.
 
I have to admit I am doing a Homer..... Doh! Doh! Doh! Doh!
