Bug#407759: Should BLK_DEV_GENERIC be compiled into the kernel?
The business card iso downloaded on 10 feb 2007 did _NOT_ work on my system.
It was still unable to detect the cdrom. lsmod showed the jmicron module was
loaded.
The system is an Intel DG965SS mobo, with lspci showing:

Subject: Bug#407759: Should BLK_DEV_GENERIC be compiled into the kernel?
The jmicron driver has been included in the latest 2.6.18 kernel that is
used in current _daily built_ installer images [1]. This may fix the
problem you had with using the CD-ROM drive in the installer. It would be
great if you could test the new installer to see if your system installs
now.
If you don't want to, you don't need to overwrite your existing
installation. Just run the installation to the start of partitioning.
Please choose the "manual" partitioning method and check that your
harddisk is still recognized too and then abort the installation.
TIA,
FJP
