I've downloaded the oneiric boot.img.gz and transferred it to a usb stick. It boots fine on my Cube via the firmware boot command. However, when it finally gets to the partition faze of the install the partitioner doesn't recognize the hard disk. It only sees the usb stick. I've rebooted several times and rerun the disk detection several times with no luck. I modprobed hfsplus, and then retried the detection with no luck.

I've done a lucid install using this method in the past without any trouble. So, I'm wondering if this is a known issue, if anyone else has experienced this, and if there is a work-around?

TIA
