Graig: The rw parameter is needed for post 2.4.18 kernel whatever the boot media is (floppy, cd-rom, disk...). If you do not put it your initial fs is mounted Read-only and therefore you cannot create directories needed at the initial stage of the boot process. By the way my documentation mention this: http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bucdrom.html See end of paragraph 8.4
Jacques Alex, O.K., I'm confused. Why does it work without the rw parameter if you're using a floppy disk...but not a CD?

The rw parameter is not needed for the 2.4.18 kernel (Bering 1.0), but it is needed for newer kernels (2.4.20 of Bering 1.1), starting with 2.4.19 or 2.4.20. - Alex ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Does your code think in ink?
