Re: debian-installer progress and input needed



Ok, let's get some order into this.

I have already opened a bug report to include loop-modules [1].

Then, looking at the module packages on m68k [2] and powerpc [3],
I suggest to add the following new packages first:

- affs-modules (to allow d-i to mount Amiga filesystems)
- hfs-modules (to allow d-i to mount MacOS filesystems)
- pata-modules
- scsi-core-modules (for sd_mod and scsi_mod)

nic-shared-modules should be renamed to nic-modules. Note that most
NIC modules are already added, see [4]. Also, many generic drivers
are added by merely including them with "#include <module package>"
which includes them from [5]. So, please, if you suggest additional
modules, please make sure not to put modules on the list which
we already have, either directly or through #include.

To nic-modules, we should add:

- macmace

To pata-modules, we should add:

- gayle
- ide-cd_mod
- macide
- swim_mod (although this is a floppy module)

To scsi-modules, we should add:

- atari_scsi
- esp_scsi
- mac_esp
- mac_scsi

Did I miss anything?
