Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone can point me to some good documentation explaining how to add a kernel driver into the initrd.img.
When I tried to add it, Anaconda would prompt me that It couldn't find the hardware (in this case an updated e1000 driver). The driver was listed in the dialog and I could Manually load it by selecting it. However, Anaconda refuses to proceed further to download the Stage 2 ramdisk.
When adding the driver to the initrd.img I Merged the pcitable, pci.ids, modinfo from the original driver. That contains newer PCI IDs for the e1000.
The problem is it seems to think I want another driver disk?
Anyone know?
Thanks,
Shawn.

If I recall correctly, there was some discussion on the Kickstart list along the lines of "Inserting network driver into initrd.img" sometime early Feb 2006. Cannot find the thread right away, can you check up the archives: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list ?
