Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal
On a freshly installed sarge system there are two lines in the
/etc/modules:
ide_generic
ide_cd
If the root filesystem is not on the same controller as the cdrom/dvd
drive this loads the generic IDE driver for the controller where the
cd/dvd drive is installed. This driver has no ability to use DMA/UDMA
on most controllers and thus results in inferior performance of the
cdrom/dvd drive.
This bug does not affect systems with the root filesystem on the same
controller as in this case the correct driver is loaded during boot
(initrd) before /etc/modules is being considered.
Suggested fix:
Insert the driver for the detected IDE controller into /etc/modules
before the other two entries or at least warn the user about the
possible problem.
Best regards,
Robert Kroiss

I think this is no longer the case with initramfs-tools initrds.
