Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.90a Some kernel command line parameter, like ide=nodma, for example, are ignored by the ramdisk's script.
When booting from Compact flas, for example, the ide=nodma on the kernel command line is useless, since ide modules loaded from ramdisk scripts ignores them. Some guys from LinuxFromScratch discussed the problem here : http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/ticket/2023 and they provided a patch here : http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/attachment/ticket/2023/initramfs-add-ide-options.patch regards,
