Tim Wright is on permanent record as saying:

:hmm. Two things I can think of. Neither are very likley things. You might
:need to get the kernel to mount
:
:/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part2
:
:instead of /dev/hda2 (the new devfs naming scheme).

This is possible.  Currently, I'm letting the value be pulled from
/etc/fstab (as documented), which doesn't use devfs names.  However,
I've left legacy names enabled.

:The other thing is did you remember to compile in IDE support to the
:kernel (not a module)?

Yeah.  I ran into this when I was running a scsi-based system a while
ago.  A nice little gotcha, but avoided in my case.  Besides, if I
didn't, the kernel would panic regardless of initrd.

Thanks,

Greg
