I'm trying to use use Unattended for doing an install of a Dell Precision 370,
using the linuxboot. At first I tried with 4.2, but it didn't recognize the SATA
disk. Then I updated to 4.5 and it bombed on the EDD firmware. At first I
thought it was the same problem reported by someone else (fixed in 4.6-rc1), but
after getting the same error with the 4.6-rc1 bootdisk I looked closer.

I get (after the EDD facility is succesfully loaded):

*** Unrecognized interface type in /sys/firmware/edd/int13_dev80/interface
Unable to determine boot device at /usr/bin/find-boot-device line 208
*** find-boot-device failed
*** Dropping to shell

The contents of /sys/firmware/edd/int13_dev80/interface :
SATA         device: 0


Looking at find-boot-device, I believe that this is indeed not supported (or
looked after at all). Is there a quick fix for me to do or can I expect a fix in
the next release?

Regards,
Lars Ivar Igesund
