drakx fails at install_steps_interactive.pm line 196 with an "undefined" error. Seems that this is on loading firewire mods. However, I'm not that much concerned about that, I can easily skip that and rebuild stage2.
What troubles me is that the cdrom modules aren't loaded with hd install. Both cdrom and ide-cd get a "not found". And I don't know where these modules are. I can't extract them from modules.cz-2.4.19-16mdkBOOT. I took parts of the insmod perl out of commands.pm into a small perl script and used it to extract modules, but those cdrom modules seem not to be in there. Are they in the initial ramdisk? btw, are there any docs about making the initial boot floppy (stage1 and the .rdz)? - Mark
