kernel modules mismatch

Hi folks,

I am having some trouble with some DVD's I created from an internal mirror of etch. I get a message that "No kernel modules were found. This may be due to a mismatch in the installer kernel and the kernel available in the archive". I have two versions of the installer, one with kernel version 2.6.18-5 and 2.6.18-6, both give me the same error message.

Have I left something important out of my CONF.sh file?

Do you need help?

# If set, controls where the d-i components are downloaded from.

# Which architecture do you want. We have

# IMPORTANT : The 4 following paths must be on the same partition/device.
# If they aren't then you must set COPYLINK below to 1. This
# takes a lot of extra room to create the sandbox for the ISO

# Path where the images will be written

Do you need more help?

# Do I want to have NONFREE merged in the CD set
# export NONFREE=1

# Do I want to have CONTRIB merged in the CD set

# If you have a $MIRROR/dists/$CODENAME/local/binary-$ARCH dir with

# If your local packages are not under $MIRROR, but somewhere else,

# export LOCALDEBS=/home/joey/debian/va/debian

# Where to find the security patches. This directory should be the
# top directory of a security.debian.org mirror.
#export SECURITY="$TOPDIR"/debian/debian-security

# Sparc only : bootdir (location of cd.b and second.b)
# export BOOTDIR=/boot

Can we help you?

# Symlink farmers should uncomment this line :
# export SYMLINK=1

# Use this to force copying the files instead of symlinking or hardlinking
# them. This is useful if your destination directories are on a different
# partition than your source files.
# export COPYLINK=1

# Options

export MKISOFS=mkisofs

export MKISOFS_OPTS="-r"		#For normal users

# export MKISOFS_OPTS="-r -F ."	#For symlink farmers

# ISOLinux support for multiboot on CD1 for i386
#export ISOLINUX=1

# uncomment this to if you want to see more of what the Makefile is doing
export VERBOSE_MAKE=1

# uncoment this to make build_all.sh try to build a simple CD image if
# the proper official CD run does not work
ATTEMPT_FALLBACK=yes

# Set your disk type here. Known types are:
# BC (businesscard): 650 MiB max (should be limited elsewhere,
# should never fill a CD anyway)
# NETINST: 650 MiB max (ditto)
# CD: standard 74-min CD (650 MiB)
# CD700: (semi-)standard 80-min CD (700 MiB)
# DVD: standard 4.7 GB DVD
# CUSTOM: up to you - specify a size to go with it (in 2K blocks)
export DISKTYPE=DVD
#export DISKTYPE=CUSTOM
#export CUSTOMSIZE=XXXX

(the remainder of the file remains unchanged from the default)

Can't find what you're looking for?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
