RE: [SUMMARY] Intimate on microdrive with 0.5-pre Fami liar

I need to verify this, I was under the ASSumption that the Intimate
installer would have inserted that module, but now I see that that might
not be the case. I'll try it tonight and post results tomorrow, along
with interim documentation if it works.

Thanks, everyone!

Jason

Are you *certain* that your microdrive got mounted?  I remember seeing
problems not unlike this when the mounting failed for some reason or
another? (like the reiserfs modules being somehow bungled, nowadays
I explicitly

	ipkg install reiserfs-module
	ipkg install reiserfs-modules-2.4.7-modules-rmk3-np1-devfs

before even running the beta-installer)  If the microdrive isn't
mounted, the rsync will obviously run aground pretty quickly...
the installation *should* fit even on an 340MB microdrive: I have
"Used" of only 145880 kB.

What does 'df' show?  Is the /dev/hda1 really mounted?
