any (other) updates on this? I have stock FAI 2.10.5 and sarge anywhere
(both on the install server and the install client - if it could
install, that is).

This problem prevents *any* installation since the kernel can't load
any modules, thus eg. not finding a disk to install on...

Your Ubuntu message is here:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=366699

So, IOW, I should re-build the fai-kernel and install that, right?
Or could I use modprobe --force?

Btw, it seems as if the kernel was built with gcc-4.1 (= built on
testing/unstable instead of stable) while (maybe) the rest of the
system, like modprobe, was built with gcc-4.0 although I can't exactly
determine this - any pointers here? How do I force using a specific gcc
for building the kernel?


Best,
