Hello!

I'm trying to install Squeeze to PowerPC Apple Mac mini. This computer
needs sungem driver for ethernet card. But there is no sungem driver in
this image. In fact, there is only one file in
..../kernel/drivers/net/wan: hdlc.ko. Besides that, installer complains
that kernel is missing lvm support. Looks like there is something wrong
with inclusion of modules into installer image. I don't know where to
start my investigation. Which part of the whole system is responsible
for building installer images?

We're updating the installer to 2.6.30-2 and this broke the images.

We hope to get it fixed in few days. I'll ping you once powerpc image
is ready so you can give it a new try.
