Re: Debian Sid - No Kernel Moduels Found

Hello,

I was trying to install Debian Sid on a IBM T22 Thinkpad from DVD's and was
stopped by the following error message.

---------------------------------------
[!!] Load installer components from CD

No kernel modules were found. This probably is due to a mismatch between a
kernel used by this version of the installer and the kernel version available in
the archive.

If you're installing from a mirror, you can work around this problem by choosing
to install a different version of Debian. This install will probably fail to
work if you continue without kernel modules.

Continue to install without loading kernel modules?

<go back>  				<yes> <no>
---------------------------------------

The DVD's are from ftp://ftp.fsn.hu/pub/CDROM-Images/debian-unofficial/sid-dvd/

I was not able to continue and have no idea what is the reason for this.
Any help would be appreciated.


I did my Sid install with the Debian Installer GUI Beta

http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstallerGUI.

It's a 10 MB ISO image that performs a net install. When you run it, you're given the choice of installing Stable, Testing or Unstable. I didn't consider the DVDs because given the nature of sid, it seems they'd be out of date not long after they were put together. Not to mention, with a net install you only download what you need and want.

Oh and the GUI is pretty nice too. http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=486&slide=1&title=debian-installer+screenshots
