OK, good to know. I can revert to the busybox version of the modutils.
That saves a little space.

OK, this I can fix. I think. :)
The problem is that the device file /dev/hdc already exists, and thus a
link can't be created. But, you probably don't want to do that anyway.
You probably want to do something like:
'ln -s /dev/sbpcd0 /dev/cdrom'

The script is confused, it's simplistic, and only understands the 4
'normal' disk devices. I'll look into it. In the meantime, could you help
out, and provide the output of:
(this would be after you boot and have the module loaded)
cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info | grep "drive name"

I'm adding some logging for the next version. If you try again, could you
copy the file /scripts/variables to a floppy before shutting down from
the failed install? There isn't much info logged at present, but it might
be enough to be useful. After the script begins prompting about packages
to install, the file is located in /root/scripts/variables.
Currently it logs the names of the cdrom device, the / device, and the
boot device, as well as some other exported variables.
Thanks again,
