These are just deprecation warnings -- for now, the rules work, they
just spew a warning. Bill sent a patch last week-ish to fix them up.
Thx for explaining this. First I've thought 2.6.20 is one of these
"future kernels".

This is highly probable. And with the test1 live CD, only some of the
pata bits worked due to a combination of spaces not being in the right
place and some kernel wonkiness.

I've got a set of changes which works for the little bit of pata
hardware that I was able to find relatively quickly around the office.
The patches and config packages that I used for the test2 live CD are
at
http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/live/f7test2/.
I've created a base livecd from todays rawhide. What I can say for now:
I was able to boot it on both machines (mentioned in first mail).
And there's a
README at
http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/live/f7test2/README along
the same lines as the one davidz posted with the FC6 live CD.
The directory "os" is missing from the development-repo. :)
It's at least worth checking to see if that solves things for
you
before going any further on trying to track things down.
Ok. Next time I will ask earlier. :)
