Yukon-II support

[Stephan Hermann]

Hi Greg,

the driver is there, but not activated.
I'm waiting for a kernel upload with this driver enabled, too, to test
the complete installation (because I have to pxeboot the laptop here)
anything else to test makes no sense right now.

My last points to test:

- yukon2 functionality during installing (because of pxeboot and
downloading the packages via http from install server)
- resizing ntfs partitions automatically 

But right now I see there is a new linux kernel coming, so it should
make it into the installer iso today, latest tomorrow.

Rock,
