I stopped hw-detect from loading floppy on newworld systems ages ago. However, Sven's images (used by the sid_d-i CDs) are broken: according to the initrd.list files, they include an ancient version of hw-detect, namely 0.86, which dates from mid-April. This puzzles me because the build logs appear to say that it's doing the right thing. Sven, could you please look into this? If it's too hard to fix, I have a daily build running now and we could make the sid_d-i images use mine instead for the time being. > install-power4-2.6 doesn't detect the keyboard and therefore sits > forever at the country chooser.

We can certainly arrange that, but I'm not feeling very well today so let's try a couple of rounds of information-gathering first. :) -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
