Yep, it did work, thanks for your help. Now, i have to go and produce an official kernel for it, not the hand made kernel with all stuff builtin i use. BTW, the initrd needs to be built-in the chrp kernel-image, at least for current states of the 2.4.22 powerpc kernel. Is there a way planned to have this done in the same run as the debian-installer run, or do we need to do it in three steps : 1) build the kernel image and in particular the kernel modules udebs. 2) build the initrd with this. 3) go back to the kernel sources, and build a kernel image which includes this initrd (copying the cdrom.initrd.gz to arch/ppc/boot/images/ramdisk.image.gz). This seems a not so nice way of doing things, especially the double circular build dependence. Also, on another topic, i maintain the driver module for the non-free, x86 only :(, Bewan ADSL pci st and usb adsl modems. Would it make sense building udebs for this, so that someone having it could directly make a net install via this modems ADSL link ? If yes, is there any kind of documentation available on doing udebs ? Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
