thanks for the helpful explanations!

Here are two patches to fix it:

a) The patch (hppa-kernel.patch) is vs. trunk, which 
- uses MEGARAID_NEWGEN instead of MEGARAID_LEGACY (the legacy driver "hangs" my box),
- uses CONFIG_DRM=y instead of =m (you proposed that to me in an earlier bug report)
- adds the "fb-modules" package to installer/hppa/package-list (with standard priority 
  because the radeon driver is necessary on a c8000 machine)

b) The installer-hppa-modules.tgz file. 
- please extract it in the debian/installer/hppa/modules/ directory.
- It creates the subfolder debian/installer/hppa/modules/hppa-parisc64-smp
- The files in the subfolder are basically copies of the ones in hppa/
- Only exception is the (new) fb-modules file (as suggested by you above).

It would be great if you could apply it before 3.13 :-)

Thanks,
Helge
