[Sheflug] Debian install problems.

[Barrie Bremner <nospam [at] ecosse.net>]

Hi everyone.

I've just subscribed this address for a while because I'm at work and have 
nothing better to do but install linux :-)

I took the Toshiba I got the other day back, and am now the proud, but 
slightly annoyed owner of a HP Omnibook 800CT (166MMX, 48Mb), complete with 
external floppy drive and CDROM.

I've managed to get a base system installed on to the system, but rebooting 
the machine to begin installing all the packages fails - I get following error 
messages:

[several times]

/bin/sh: /sbin/termwrap: No file or directory
/bin/sh: exec: /sbin/termwrap: cannot execute: No such file or directory

then,
INIT: Id "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 mins.

At which point it hangs for a few minutes, and splurges the same lines.

What is happening?

Cheers.

Baz.
