Thanks, Charles -- I've had the exact same problem. However, there's a piece of information I don't have here. When I issue that command, what gets put into /boot is initrd-2.4.8-26mdk (duh), which is NOT an .img file. What exactly am I supposed to do here to make an image file out of it? If I reboot, will it magically create one? Or what? I know I'm revealing my abysmal ignorance here, but there's something I don't understand. Robin
