Oliver,

 That is why SALI is around.  It is only a kernel/initrd with up to date 
utilities that does a better job in detecting which hardware. The only problem 
is that we do not have an up to date systemconfigurator of other tools that 
generate the auto install scripts, Brian also posted 
http://download.systemimager.org/pub/ssm/README. 


Jing could replace the default system imager kernel/initrd with the SALI one.
