Package: boot-floppies
Version: 2.2.15-2000-06-07
Severity: critical
The modutils stuff in dbootstrap ("Configure device drivers") still does not
pass options to the modprobe call. I can't install `ne' or `adlib_card' from
the "GUI". Especially `adlib_card' is nice because it explicitly says it
doesn't get the parameter that I'm trying to pass to it; a "modprobe
adlib_card" (i.e. without params) from tty2 gives exactly that error. (a
modprobe _with_ params gives a normal "device not found"-type of error)
System: Pentium 166 MHz, booted from official non-US test-cycle-2 i386
Binary-1 CD (which is supposed to use images-2.88/rescue.bin).
Regards,
Anne Bezemer
