The following changelog entry is from the latest kernel-source-2.6.8 update (-10): * Fix missing backport of ssleep declaration so that new aic7xxx works. Thanks Matt Taggart for pointing out the problem. (Joshua Kwan) I wonder if this is still causing the problem. Any ideas? On a related note, I've been trying to use the linux-kernel-di-i386-2.6 and debian-installer source packages to make a 2.6.9 kernel image to use with d-i with no success. Using either the images in sid or ones I compile myself, the kernel is unable to load the root filesystem and panics. How can I find out what version of kernel-source-2.6.8 is used to generate the d-i kernels? How can see the .config used?

Can you provide us with the output of: (lspci ; lspci -n) | sort (please send it to the list...I'm not a hardware specialist and this is needed to help the right people) I'm traveling now so it will be a few days before I have access to the machine again.

Debian-install kernel and AIC-7901
I'm having trouble with the kernel in Debian-install detecting my AIC-7901. It seems there is a bug with the pci table in the aic79xx driver in 2.6.8-1 which is in Debian-install RC2. I tried the d-i daily for 23 Nov 2004, which seems to use the same kernel source (2.6.8-1) and, thus, has the same problem. Can anyone confirm this is the case? I also tried to build a new d-i image with an updated kernel using the d-i wiki docs, but was very frustrated by both the debian-installer and linux-kernel-di-2.6 source packages. Does anyone have any advice as to how to procede, either by building a new d-i image or otherwise? Thanks, Jan Medlock -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
