Bug#273935: debian-installer installs kernel 2.6 without modules



Hi Joey,

I repeated the process on another machine, and it came
out alright. I suppose I had an entry in
/boot/grub/menu.lst left over from a previous
installation, and the installer just left it there.
So, no bug this time :)

Sorry about the loss of time.

Thanks,

Alex.
