SquadBoy's Journal: Getting the new machine to boot

Well as I mentioned in my previous post the new machine has a nforce based mobo. Getting this to boot with 2.4 kernels on the Debian netinst CDs was, to say the least, interesting. In order to get this to work I had to disable the onboard NIC in the BIOS. This is OK because I'm using a Intel NIC to install with anyway. So by the time I farked about with ATTs stupid NIC registration stuff and figured this out and did the family duties it was bedtime. So I'll be installing for sure tonight.
