sorry if you are geting this twice as I have also posted to the amd64 list Hello All,
I figure I will also give this information to this list as I was asked some questions from the amd list. Frist part is this is not a live cd, it is booting off of the hard drive. Next thing is all of the stuff here loaded right when usings a livecd, I got the list by doing a lsmod and then writeing them into the file that coldplug uses to automatic load them as this is the stuff that the live cd loaded / detected. The hard drives that are being used is SATA (in the bios I have it as IDE as I don't care to use raid or arrays, the motherboard is a Asus K8V Delux SE (its the one with talking boot up and also the one that has a wireless card slot init) If there is any more questions I could answer to help with figureing out these issue please ask!
