I'm still having the same trouble with the latest (02.Dec) installer with an AIC-7901 SCSI controller. The following changelog entry is from the latest kernel-source-2.6.8 update (-10):
* Fix missing backport of ssleep declaration so that new aic7xxx works.
Thanks Matt Taggart for pointing out the problem. (Joshua Kwan)I wonder if this is still causing the problem. Any ideas?
On a related note, I've been trying to use the linux-kernel-di-i386-2.6 and debian-installer source packages to make a 2.6.9 kernel image to use with d-i with no success. Using either the images in sid or ones I compile myself, the kernel is unable to load the root filesystem and panics.
How can I find out what version of kernel-source-2.6.8 is used to generate the d-i kernels? How can see the .config used?
Thanks, Jan Medlock
