Comment 99 for bug 8196

Sorry, folks, but I have similar behavior with the install RC dated 2005-03-30
02:49. My config:
AMD64, 1 HDD as PATA secondary master, USB CD (Sony DRX-500ULX), USB keyboard
and mouse, no ATAPI CD, no floppy, SATA onboard.

It fails to load ide-{mod,probe-mod,detect,floppy}. It does load usb-storage.
It goes through language and keyboard fine, but can't find/mount the CD it just
booted from. There is a device file that gets created and destroyed when I
plug/unplug the USB cable to the CD.

Same behavior whether or not SATA is disabled in BIOS.

I just tried it with the daily release CD for 2005-04-04, same problem
still...maybe no surprises there since the MD5SUM for that file matches that for
the RC. You guys should make sure that the dates on the dailies as listed on
the download web pages match the dates on the files when they're downloaded. I
just wasted a lot of time downloading and testing that daily, which just
duplicates the RC from last week.
