[Please include my email address in any replies] Hi, I see debian-kernel is the maintainer of initrd-tools. My sarge install was not correctly setup,
/etc/modules floppy ide-disk via82cxxx ide-generic ide-cd psmouse #sd_mod nvidia via82cxxx was missing. and sd_mod was not commented out. For some reason ide_scsi was setup to be included in my initrd as well. These caused two faults: 1) DVD writing was broken. I had to manualy fix my initrd to not load ide_scsi. 2) DMA was not enabled on my IDE harddrive, with via82cxxx and not ide-generic it did not work, I had to load them in the order as above. Could these issues be resolved by the installer and kernel config? in the mean time can they be added to the release notes? http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/release-notes.en.txt I expect other users probably experience these issues.
