The machine is a DS15.
The DS-15 would be very useful for helping us build packages for Debian Alpha.
Do you think you could set up the machine as a build machine?

debian-installer does not use a kernel package, it boots the bare kernel image
and loads additional modules either from the initial ramdisk or module udebs
such as "ata-modules-5.5.0-2-alpha".
Compiling the module into the kernel is surely the easiest approach.
kes sense to add a floppy module when you compile floppy
support into the kernel. If it's compiled in, the driver is always present.

tter, join the #debian-ports channel on OFTC as it's not
always necessary to open a bug report for every change you are requesting.
I have commit access to debian-cd, debian-installer and related parts,
so I can just push the changes myself.

You're welcome. It's a community effort, so I'll just say that on

ly shipped with the kernel and debian-installer now,
there might be a module missing for your hardware.
I'm currently busy with work, so I cannot have a look right away but maybe
