Bug Description

The Ubuntu 20071016 alternate install CD for PowerPC fails to install an initrd which has a module dependency on ide-disk.ko.

This causes the initrd to fail to find the hard disk, at which point the module has to be manually loaded.

(it also missed snd_powermac, but that's not fatal).
