No. It is only present for sparc64 but missing for sparc32 (again with 17. Oct netinst image, todays not tried).Hmm. I doubt that. If I check the contents of an initrd for the same CD image you used (sparc netinst from 17-10) I see: /lib/modules/2.6.17-2-sparc32/kernel/fs/isofs/isofs.ko
I retried it. When CD mounting failed, I switched to Alt-F2 and did find /lib/modules -name '*iso*' This yielded /lib/modules/2.6.16-2-sparc64/kernel/fs/isofs /lib/modules/2.6.16-2-sparc64/kernel/fs/isofs/isofs.ko and nothing more./lib/modules/2.6.16-2-sparc32/kernel does not contain the fs subdir, only drivers.
