Acer Aspire 9300 notebook

[Isaacs <redpine@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I have purchased an Acer Aspire 9300 notebook and am trying to install a 
Debian distribution.

Sarge does not work directly because it fails to detect the hard drive 
at hde. Woody will install. I have managed to upgrade the Woody 
distribution to Sarge. I have not been able to upgrade to a 2.6 kernel.

USB flash keys are not detected in any of the configurations. USB serial 
devices and 1284 devices are detected if they are plugged at bootup. 
Removal and re-insertion of these devices are detected a few times but 
detection eventually fails.

I am particularly interested in getting the flash keys to work. They are 
my only means ( other than burning a CD or using a serial line ) to get 
data on/off the machine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Paul Isaacs
