But usb-storage.o was really not to be found. Lots of other modules was downloaded (including sd_mod.o) along with the rest of the installer. I redid the install (netboot RC1) about 5 or 6 times (had to figure out how to make it fit on 2x128 MB), and I would always have to download usb-storage.o separately. It was not in lib/modules/2.4.26-1-386/kernel/drivers/usb/storage, where I would expect to find it (nor was it anywhere else). - -- Frederik Dannemare | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=Frederik+Dannemare http://frederik.dannemare.net | http://www.linuxworlddomination.dk Key fingerprint: BB7B 078A 0DBF 7663 180A F84A 2D25 FAD5 9C4E B5A8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBJ6TgLSX61ZxOtagRApapAJ0aAV4MJTh/0KtWDEVA3UtwqLWs2ACfUI6X ijFMxtc86vLDcb4+UXFAeQw= =Uw3C -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
