install problem; modules
I am attempting to install potato and get the following error when setting up the modules to install in the kernel: modprobe: Can't open /target/etc/modules.conf I have done the following: (1) downloaded the contents of /main/disks-i386 to my harddrive; (2) created rescue.bin and root.bin diskettes; (3) rebooted and successfully started to installation process; (4) installed the base system (base2_2.tgz and drivers.tgz) from my DOS partition. At this point the installation program enters the modules setup process and I get the above error for all modules I try to install. Thanks, Dave David B.

On May 4, Santiago Vila Doncel [EMAIL PROTECTED] responded to me (on the list) and said: Just switch to the second virtual console and do: touch /target/etc/modules.conf This worked (for me). This seems to be a known bug which will be corrected in the next incarnation of the boot-floppies. HTH. -- David Karlin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Powered by Debian GNU/Linux
