hello,

- I almost manage to boot my system with ramdisk but I still have an
error :


Kernel command line: root=/dev/rd/0 init=linuxrc console=ttyS0,115200 

.
.
.

RAMDISK driver initialized: 16 RAM disks of 4096K size 1024 blocksize
Floppy drive(s): fd0 is 1.44M
FDC 0 is a post-1991 82077
VFS: Cannot open root device "rd/0" or 01:00
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 01:00

I guess I don't tell the kernel to use initrd or maybe I don't use good
options to launch mkelfimage :


mkelfimage --kernel=/usr/src/linux/vmlinux --ramdisk=initrd.gz
--output=myelf


Do I need to add options ? What is wrong ?
( In fact, I don't exactly know how to tell the kernel to use initrd
through mkelfimage ).


- Another question : I don't manage to make an elf image with a bzImage
( when I burn my elf image, when linuxbios jump to kernel, but nothing
...), only a vmlinux image boots. is bzImage supported ?

Thanks.
