This used to work with SuSE 9.0 where we loaded the module for the first controller with "insmod gdth" passed to linuxrc (we are using pxeboot). Now, with 10.1, the init process of YA starts a "Hardware detection" *before* loading the modules defined in the info file or passed to the command line.
That has been fixed in sles10 (bug #164213).
Is there a way to backport this bugfix into 10.1? Like patching yast modules via "driverupdate"? I don't know how, because "init" is a binary in the initrd used for AY and so I can't hack it... Is the source code of this init available somewhere? (shouldn't it due to GPL? Or is the init binary covered by some other kind of license?) If I could get into that init process, I could fix a lot myself :-) Or can I exchange the SL10.1 init (or whole root image) with the SLES10 one? So just using it for booting, but then pointing AY to the 10.1 repository for installation...? I don't mind pushing my own kernel into the install process, but I would feel better if I could fix that problem the right way :-) cu, Frank -- Dipl.-Inform.
