Installation stops when S01 is invoked

Hi Andre,
thanks for your help.
There weren't any module problems. The questions were general like "Do 
you want to create lilo.conf?" or similar. I assumed that these 
questions come from dpkg when it tries to configure the kernel-package. 
So I tried to unpack it without configuration by dpkg with:

dpkg --unpack kernel-image.deb

and configure it with an own script, which creates the lilo.conf and 
invokes lilo. And now it works fine. The installation process isn't 
interrrupted anymore.
