I have Slakware 3.3 with a 2.0.33 kernel, and I managed to persuade
kerneld to load ppa with the line "scsi_adaptor  ppa" in my kerneld
configuration file. This works, but only if the lp module isn't
currently loaded. Getting kerneld to automatically unload lp before
loading ppa (and vice versa) would be a step forwards.

Hmm... there is a post-install section... I wonder if there is an
undocumented "pre-install" section?

Chris.
