Bug#446925: Debian Testing Weekly/Daily ISO's have mismatched module packages or missing module packages.
Package: debian-installer
Version: 20070308
This bug report is for .ISO files available as of Monday, October 15th
2007. It should be noted that this particular set of bugs has been
effecting the debian testing images for over a month.
1.) http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i386-CD-1.iso
This image boots, however no module packages except for
nic-shared-modules are available. The module package at least matches
the running kernel of the installer.
List of all modules in the initrd and udeb packages on the cdrom:

2.) http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso
This image boots, it has udeb packages for the standard module
packages. Packages modules do not match the running kernel.
3.) http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso
This image boots, up until recently module udeb packages matching the
running kernel were listed in debian-installer/Packages.gz and a full
and normal install could happen. Now the running kernel is 2.6.18-5
and Packages.gz refers to 2.6.18-4 module udeb packages.
Of course, I can install from an etch CD and upgrade. Thats not a
problem, nor is it the solution to this bug report. I just hope this
bug report resolves to working d-i images that can be used for a full
installation.
