If the missing proper initrd was not the problem - are you sure the CF is actually hda on your box? If it also has a regular ide port (for a 2.5 HD or something like that), it could also be hdb, hdc or hdd (or something else - just check kernel messages) I hope that helps Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
