Description of problem:
If, for any reason, you try to load the same driver from the driver disk twice, the installer says the disk is already in use and you have to reboot.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.start install with dd option
2.insert disk when required, select ne driver, forget to enter irq/io data
3.driver will not load, so go back, enter data and installer will fail because disk is in use(?)
	

Actual Results:  If you really need that driver, you have to restart the installation and not make any mistake in selecting the driver and its options.

Expected Results:  Correct loading of driver
