I finished the CD part of the install without ever loading the module. When I rebooted off of the installed kernel image it loaded the module fine. The other problem I had was that I wanted to install xfs and that module did not seem to exist on the install cd. I ended up installing to a temporary partition using ext2, and "tar"ing the root filesystem over to its real xfs home. I also had to symlink /sbin/fsck.xfs to /bin/true temporarily so that the root filesystem would "pass" and then the machine would finish booting. Take care, Dale -- Dale E.
