You have not copied the ide modules to /boot/lib/modules directory and
not declared it in /boot/etc/modules file. This is loaded before linuxrc
and if linuxrc were to read packages from IDE HDs, these drivers must
have been loaded. This is why linuxrc looks at floppy0. Just copy them
as above, back up and you would be home.

Subject: [leaf-user] Can't install Bearing on IDE


Hi,

I can't seem to get Bearing on my IDE working.  Please help.  Here are
the steps I have done:

1.  Have a stable Bearing version on a floppy disk with ide modules
(ide-mod.o, ide-disk.o, ide-probe-mod.o) 2.  Run lrcfg to edit modules
to include all ide modules in the order above. Back-up everything except
log. 3.  Create a primary active partition (20 MB) on a hard drive and
format it with FAT16 4.  Copy the Bearing above to C: 5.  At DOS prompt,
syslinux -s c: 6.  Edit syslinux.cfg to change all fd0u1680 to hda1.
Save it. 7.  Reboot

Bearing boots up fine until it starts LINUXRC.  At that poin, it tries
to look for a floppy, but can't find it because there isn't a floppy in
a floppy drive.  It then fails with a "Kernel panic" error.  Everything
stops. Is there a different kernel that supports IDE?  

Am I missing anything?  Please help.  Thank you.
