Thanks for the suggestion. I tried this first in the grub file and had a slightly different result. I tried it in the /etc/fstab as well, but it didn't make any difference. I currently get: VFS: Cannot open root device ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part7 or unknown-block (0,0) Please append

You sure you've got either the ext3 modules included in an initrd image, or (the simplest approach) compiled into the 2.6 kernel? Another possibility is that the initrd image contains something it shouldn't, and that you'll be able to boot if you delete the initrd boot entry. // Thomas On
