hi,

 I'm pxe booting ubuntu dapper 6.06 to a Soekris 4501 (64MB RAM & 1GB
Compact Flash card) ... dhcp, tftp and the server install is running
smoothly until I want to write the partitioning to the CF card ....

 I tried guided and manual partitioning .... same issue, which is:
 ---------------------------- issue
-------------------------------------------------
 The attempt to mount a file system with type swap in IDE1 master,  |
          | partition #5 (hda5) at none failed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I made tests on different CF card 1GB & 4GB and from both Sandisk &
IBM ... no difference.

 My manual partitions:

 200 MB           /
 100 MB           swap
 350 MB           /usr
 350 MB           /var

1 GB Microdrive:
Pri Mas  IBM-DSCM-11000                  LBA Xlt 522-64-63  1052 Mbyte

Same issue with a Sandisk 1GB


 Ideas?      		 	 		  		 			 				__________________
