I hope this will work One further tip. Make your root FS's type the only one that is not a module. Once you have it booting then, if you want, flip other FSes to in kernel.

Upgrading from 2.4.xx kernel series to 2.6.xx series what I found is that the filesystem must be compiled into the kernel image not as a module b/c in 2.4.xx filesystem compiled as module also work And another thing is that I never succedded in booting the 2.6.xx kernel __successfully__ compiled from 2.4.xx series (distribution with default 2.4.xx series kernel like Fedora Core 1 or Redhat Linux 9) and found that my mouse won't work on 2.6.xx series kernel, but the distribution with 2.6.xx kernel series by default works fine . -- Fawad Lateef - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
