Package: kernel-wedge
Version: 2.64
Severity: serious

The daily squeeze installer builds aren't working on my NSLU2 (armel).
I think that the problem is related to bug 534324 [1]. The USB disk
enclosure I am using uses a Cypress chipset, and the installer image
doesn't include ums-cypress.ko, which seems to be required with 2.6.32
for this chipset. Therefore, the installer does not find any disks
onto which the operating system can be installed.
