I am preparing an unofficial set of boot-floppies with USB floppy support and I stumbled over a kernel problem which may prevent ide-floppy users from installing Debian. IMHO this patch for rd.c would allow any device to be used for the initrd compressed image, and without it, such devices would be ignored. Did anyone try to install from a LS-120 floppy? IMHO this would break, but with this patch and the proper kernel arguments it would work. 841,847d840 < if (MAJOR(ROOT_DEV) != FLOPPY_MAJOR < #ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD < && MAJOR(real_root_dev) != FLOPPY_MAJOR < #endif < ) < return; < Gruss/Regards, Eduard. -- Es gibt drei Arten der Lüge, hat einmal George Bernard Shaw gesagt: die gewöhnliche Lüge, die Statistik und den Wetterbericht -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
