Samuel's image report, was Re: Install Debian from within another distro

[Cleverson Casarin Uliana]

Hello Samuel,

Thank you for making the USB image. I copied it to my pendrive using 
zcat as described in the chapter you pointed me, and then copied the iso 
image there.

When I booted to the USB pendrive, I had no speech. With a sighted 
assistance, i was able to set my locale and language. After that, the 
installer reported that one step of the installation had failed, that's 
the configure speech voices.

I then run configure speech voices again from the main menu, and it 
failed again, then I aborted and exited.

For you info, I have had problems getting sound to work on my machine 
more than once in the past. GRML has always worked, but an old enabled 
Arch Linux image made by Chris has not.

I recall that Chris has kindly made a testing image for me last April 
and it worked fine. It was based on kernel 2.6.35 if I'm not wrong.

My machine has an Intel Pentium D processor, an Intel chipset with 
onboard network, video, and a high definition Intel soundcard.

Although the processor is 64 bit capable, I always install i386 systems, 
as the machine has only 1 gb of RAM.

Thanks anyways.
Cleverson
