Hi Jennifer,
The sdhci.blacklist=yes parameter works. But only with the alternate disk. It
is a special parameter for the debian install that was not used on the livecd.

I think the 8139too problem is resolved. However, the disk still doesn't
boot as a live CD on these laptops, because of the SDHCI module (see

Hi Jennifer,
Yes this config change will only apply to Ubuntu kernels:
ogasawara:~/ubuntu-hardy/debian/config$ grep -rn "CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO" *
amd64/config:11:CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO=y
hppa/config.hppa32:7:CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO=y
i386/config:7:CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO=y
ia64/config:10:CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO=y
Is that config change just for Ubuntu kernels?
Anyway, thanks -- that will get owners of these laptops one step closer
to being able to boot off the live CD and use standard Ubuntu upgrades
for the kernel. (There's still the SDHCI problem, but that's now a
separate bug.)

You have to install Ubuntu 5.04 and then compile your own kernel with
