rolcodronl Coping with modules can be straining, I put some tips in here. Ymmw.

From debootstrap

Symlinking /lib/modules on the debian rootfs to /initrd should use the modules in your flashfs. Be sure to get the path right. Or you can copy the contents from flashfs /lib/modules to debian rootfs /lib/modules.

Both ways are tested and should work.

From the nslu2-0.2 rootfs

Its an ugly hack, but it should work until the kernel stuff is in the debian feed.

Get the kernel-module-foo.ipk from the ipkg repo for openslug to your debonaras machine. To get modules for the 2.6.12.2 kernel go here: http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/openslug/cross/2.6-beta/(approve sites)

Then do dpkg -i --force-all foo.ipk

This will complain about missing dependencies and wrong arch, module will still be installed in the proper place. Just load it by hand or modprobe.

Thanks to dyoung for the tips
