Notice that the sym53c8xx_2 module is also called sym53c8xx.ko :
ls /lib/modules/2.6.7-powerpc/kernel/drivers/scsi/sym53c8xx_2/

The old sym53c8xx driver is not build for powerpc. And indeed they are

We really want to go the 2.6 route for sarge, as i (and Jens, and the rest of

Actually, this seems to be a bug in the debian-cd used, i thought Colin would
fix this. Well he said he did, but maybe manty need to update its cvs

boot instruction to know where the kernel is.

We would then need a partman-prep, like the partman-palo, and a prep-installer
which moves the kernel to the right place, after having called mkvmlinuz on
it.
Mmm, i believe that mkvmlinuz is already called on prep during base-installer.

Work on quik only started recently, so this may be the reason for it. I would
very much like to have a better understanding of the 2.6 problem. Could you
tell me the module name involved and the pci id of the device that fail ?
Or you could check directly in :
/usr/share/discover/pci.lst
and fill a bug report against discover if it doesn't show up.

It is debian-cd, but you could provide an installation against the installer
all the same, so it will get to the debian-boot list.

Well, the same happens on my pegasos with ps/2 keyboard. I suppose that
mkinitrd should add at least the k

Someone could even add explicit firmware instuctions, like it is done in the

BootX, from the report of others, never seen it myself, has support for
specifying both a kernel (the vmlinux) and a ramdisk (the initrd.gz).

ot-ofonly.cfg :
KERNEL_CMDL = root=0200 load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=1 devfs=mount \
video=ofonly
and for boot.cfg :
KERNEL_CMDL = root=0200 load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=1 devfs=mount
So, the best would be to build those floppies yourself and add these values.
They are then added to mibo
