Should casper be attempting to load every module it can for meda such as
CD-ROMs, so that it doesn't miss any? It seems like this is what the d-i
installer does.
** Summary changed:
- Ubiquity does not load piix CD-ROM module.
+ Casper does not load piix CD-ROM module.
** Description changed:
-
When installing Fiesty gold with the desktop Live CD, certain CD-ROMS
are not recognized, such as Sony's CRX880A. This is due to the fact that
Fiesty does not probe the piix driver (note: not the same as ata_piix).
This causes problems with certain Dell Lanai (Inspiron 1420) laptops, which
come standard with this CD-ROM. The issue has been worked around by
using the 'break=top' kernel directive, and executing 'modprobe piix; exit'.
This issue does not appear to happen using the d-i alternative installer, but
only happens using the Ubiquity installer (which is shipped with the Lanai).
