While installing with G1.4 CD it does not recognize the SCSI and starts
to report things like:
Dependancy info is missing.lease run:
# /sbin/pscan.sh
to fix this.
Could not get dependancy fo for "checkfs"!
...
then it repeats the same message for:
- chekroot
- clock
- hostname
- local
- metalog
- modules 
- ...
but if finally enters the root user.

 While starting the RescueCD(0.2.9) in freezes immediatelly after
'mounting proc...' is ok. After that I started with 'noscsi' option and
come a litle further 'mounting local filesystems [ok]' and then freeze.
