Which modules? Ditto 2GB internal is connected to (?)
internal floppy disc controller or accelerator board (ditto
dash). To get this work you need in both cases three modules:
ftape.o zftape.o fdc-internal.o

Not so load, I can read.

For further help, we need more information: how is your ditto
2GB configured (internal fdc or ditto dash, in the latter
case port, irq and dma settings). What kind of m/b are you
using? How are you loading modules? Manually or with kerneld?
In the latter case show us the relevant parts of
/etc/conf.modules. Finally and very important: have a look at
/var/log/messages and show us the ftape messages. There you
will find a lot of information. Maybe this helps you to solve
your problem by yourself.
Good luck.
One final hint: Ditto 2GB needs definitely a fdc which is
capable of at least 1000 kBps. Not every internal fdc is
capable of doing this. If your m/b has support for 2.88 MB
floppies you may be lucky. Find out, /var/log/messages will
show you this.
Good luck.
Martin
