Base installation
Using Debian Installer Etch beta 3 release
Error message:
No common CD-ROM drive was detected.
SATA driver can block access to CD drive in installations from CD. On systems having a SATA IDE controller that also has the CD drive connected to it, you may see the installer hanging during hardware detection for the CD drive or failing to read the CD just afterwards. A possible reason is that the SATA driver (ata_piix and maybe others) is blocking access to the CD drive. You can try to work around this by booting the installer in expert mode and, in the "Detect and mount CD-ROM" step, selecting only the drivers needed for CD support. These are (ide-)generic, ide-cd and isofs. The drivers needed to access the disk will still be loaded, but at a later stage. By loading the CD drivers before the SATA driver in this way, you may be able to complete the installation. Note that CD-ROM access may still be an issue after rebooting into the installed system.
Booting debian netinst from USB drive
The workaround I used is to boot from a USB stick (don't worry you will get your CDROM working later).
wget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/\ main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/boot.img.gz gzip -dc boot.img.gz >/dev/sdX
Enable USB drive boot from BIOS setup, and then Install Debian base system as usual.
Using kernel boot parameters
(Check) You can append libata.atapi_enabled=1 to the install or expert command lines at the boot prompt to get your cdrom detected and then be able to install from it.
Using Daily Build
Today, dailybuild CD has solved SATA & CD problem

Installing Core Duo kernel
apt-get install linux-image-2.6.16-2-686-smp reboot
Suspend to RAM
apt-get install gnome-power-manager
to validate
- After the installation of the NVIDIA driver, Suspend to RAM worked well after setting SUSPEND2RAM_FORCE="yes" in '/etc/powersave/sleep'.

1. Downloads
driver from http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/ for example
wget http://ufpr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/ipw3945/ipw3945-1.1.0.tgz
ieee80211 subsystem from http://ieee80211.sourceforge.net/ for example
wget http://ufpr.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/ieee80211/ieee80211-1.2.15.tgz
firmware from http://bughost.org/ipw3945/ for example
wget http://bughost.org/ipw3945/ucode/ipw3945-ucode-1.13.tgz
regulatory daemon from http://bughost.org/ipw3945/ for example
wget http://bughost.org/ipw3945/daemon/ipw3945d-1.7.22.tgz
2. Install some requisites for modules compilation
apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.16-2-686-smp apt-get install gcc-4.0
3. Complile and install modules
tar -zxvf ieee80211-1.2.15.tgz cd ieee80211-1.2.15 make make install cd .. tar -zxvf ipw3945-1.1.0.tgz cd ipw3945-1.1.0 make cd .. tar zxvf ipw3945-ucode-1.13.tgz mkdir /usr/local/lib/firmware/ cp ipw3945-ucode-1.13/ipw3945.ucode /usr/local/lib/firmware/ tar zxvf ipw3945d-1.7.22.tgz cp ipw3945d-1.7.22/x86/ipw3945d /sbin/ipw3945d-$(uname -r) cd ipw3945-1.1.0 cp ipw3945.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r) depmod -a
4. /etc/init.d/ipw3945
#!/bin/bash case $1 in start) echo -n "Load ipw3945:" modprobe -i ipw3945 /sbin/ipw3945d-$(uname -r) --timeout=30 sleep 2 echo " done." ;; stop) echo -n "Unloading ipw3945:" /sbin/ipw3945d-$(uname -r) --kill modprobe -ir ipw3945 sleep 2 echo " done." ;; esac exit 0
5. Enable start on boot
update-rc.d ipw3945 defaults
6. /etc/network/interfaces
auto eth2 iface eth2 inet dhcp
Notes:
- If your are planning to use your wireless interface in monitor mode, for example to use kismet, uncomment "CONFIG_IPW3945_MONITOR=y" from the driver Makefile before running make.
