CD-ROM detection failure duting Debian's installation

#1 Post by patryk007 »

I want to install Debian on my machine.

I booted Debian DVD 1 (6.0.5). I was continuing installation until step which is called: Detecting CD-ROM. This step failed. Debian can't see any blu-ray. I can't skip this step during installation because files would be copied from DVD.

I have blu-ray LG BH10LS38.

I can install Debian from USB flash-drive but still there would be problem with detecting my blu-ray, so it's not solution.

You may be needing firmware to access your bluray device, probably contained in firmware-nonfree package, which can be installed once you have your system installed & your sources.list suiitably amended.
Non-free software is not included with any Debian installation disks, (as far as I know).
