Loopback block device missing in hdinstall initrd?



Hi,

been trying to install etch-68k on a Powerbook 190. Kernel 2.6 that comes on the netinstall iso image boots fine with ramdisk, xcept for SCSI not working, so no CD-ROM drive. That's why I copied the iso to the ide drive. The installer finds the iso there but can't mount it, tried mounting manually and looks like there is no loopback block device in the kernel. No module on the initrd either....Is there a way you could include the loopback device driver (either in kernel or as module on the initrd) for the hdinstall to work on scsi impaired 68k macs like mine?

Cheers,

Diego Cousinet
