Good Day, here is the problem:

During install of the latest cooker, (Drakx v. 1.647) I get the following 
error message upon booting from hd.img in stage 1: (from stage1.log)

* have to insmod sd_mod
* needs scsi_mod
* needs sd_mod
*       succeeded sd_mod
* PCI: device 1000 008f is "Symbios|53c875J" (sym53c8xx)
* have to insmod sym53c8xx
* needs sym53c8xx
* init_module: sym53c8xx: No such device
*       failed
* warning, insmod failed (sym53c8xx (null)) (1)
* unsetting automatic

Hardware detection has properly identified the soundcard, I do indeed have a 
Diamond Fireport 20, which uses this chipset.

I get the same error again, in stage 2: (from debug.log)

* starting step `setupSCSI'
* running: /usr/bin/insmod_ 2> /dev/tty5 -f /tmp/cdrom.o
* running: /usr/bin/insmod_ 2> /dev/tty5 -f /tmp/ide-cd.o

line
615.

The graphical display also prints the error message as well.

Thanks for you attention, I look forward to beta 8.2 let me know if you need 
any more info.
