Knoppix 7.3.0 "universal" minirt_730.gz init ram disk (for pxe boot 32 & 64 bits)



Hello,
After finding out that the knoppix-terminalserver of Knoppix 7.3.0
is rejecting the 64bits config because different kernel modules
need to be loaded, I modified the init script to fix this issue and
created some kind of a "universal" minirt.gz replacement which
can be used for all boot configurations: normal cd/dvd boot,
usb boot, hdd boot (including from ntfs), pxe boot (nfs or smb),...
I also added some other very useful modules when running under
virtualisation like vmware: BusLogic.ko mptbase.ko mptscsih.ko
mptspi.ko and of course the ptp.ko pps_core.ko besides all the
network 32 and 64 bits kernel modules for the pxe network boot.
Best Regards,
Gilles

Hello Ryan,


I think, tg3 module needs ptp - and ptp needs pps - module, which is not
loaded...

Thanks Tamas!
 Your instructions did the trick.
I wonder if this is a bug or by design.
