Hmm, this doesn't make sense.  Did you follow the instructions? You
probalby are saying you want to read extra modules from a floppy --
that's incorrect, skip that step.  Then it will run 'modconf'.

I also suggest using a the idepci installation set or the compact set
if you have SCSI.  See the documentation.
