Hi,

I have experienced the same problem. If you have a SATA harddrive
you should specify root=/dev/sda1(or whatever device number and partition
you boot from)

On kenrel update the installer overwrites the values for (root=....) nad
puts there /dev/hd...

Hope this helps

Regards, Vasil

I upgraded my system today (etch) and when I rebooted this new kernel
complained about running out of compressed data and that I needed to
specify a correct root= parameter. Booting with kernel 2.6.17-4-k7 still
works fine and it uses the same root= parameter. My hard drive is SATA.

Is this a known problem with this kernel?
