#250 Miniroot missing code page modules needed for VFAT support

The linuxrc file in miniroot.gz of a basemodule
supports the use of 'vfat' on the kernel command. In
linuxrc, use of 'vfat' sets VFAT. Right after that, the
linuxrc script tries to load the kernel modules that
are needed to use the VFAT files system. It then does
an insmod on the /modules/nls/nls_cp437.ko and
/modules/nls/nls_iso8859.ko kernel modules. The
miniroot file does contain a directory /modules/nls but
it is empty. The needed kernel modules are missing.

This has been seen recently in the latest daily build
of the basemod ISO (basemod-2.6.15-2006-04-09_0030.iso)
but I also had the problem with MorphixBase-0.5pre5.

Recent kernels used in morphix have the vfat and code page stuff compiled in. Closing this bug as Out of Date.
