2006-03-25 10:34:54 Tormod Volden description I have an external USB drive, connected through a PCMCIA-USB interface. The Dapper Flight-2 install CD installs to the drive without any complains, but the system is not bootable. The initrd contains the usb modules, but not the pcmcia modules. (I have grub and a copy of kernel and initrd on the internal IDE drive.) Adding pcmcia and yenta-socket to /etc/initramfs/modules and making a new initrd fixes it for me.
