Has anyone tried to build their own kernel without using initrd as suggested by the documentation in section 7.2.3.2? I am curious what kernels people have confirmed to work. I have tried 2.4.18 but I have problems with NFS-root. I found 2.4.19 fixes the NFS-root problem but breaks the ramdisk used for the RW /tmp filesystem.
My temporary work-around is to nfs mount another filesystem read/write for /tmp and use 2.4.19, but I'd rather use an older 2.4 kernel if there is one known to have both a working NFS-root (/dev) and a working ramdisk. Besides working around some oddball ethernet cards, I would like to not require the DHCP/TFTP server. I have been able to build a boot floppy with SYSLINUX that has the kernel and IP configuration so all I need is the NFS server somewhere on the network. Thanks for any suggestions!
