Maybe it will be better if i'll (cross) compile some modules from backported sources for you and you will backup yours, and copy that in /lib/modules/$LINUX_VERSION? Also it's better to organize `/etc/initramfs-tools/modules' from your's current lsmod and testing `initramfs.conf' with `MODULES=list', thus you will have working-testing initrd, and boot option "break=init" (or mount, see initramfs-tools(8)) will bring shell to you and you can scroll boot messages or dmesg | more. > The box has rather experimental status.

And all we need is just driver loading, no files system or other things. > H. ____ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
