For a number of reasons, I have gone into the kernel hacking business in YDL 5.02 on a PS3 and started by taking the 2.6.23 kernel (from the most recent CELL linux ADDON iso) and compiling it, following the instructions in the Cell Performance article on making huge pages. I made the appropriate changes in the kboot.conf file to reflect the new kernel and tried to boot. SInce this is my first attempt at kernel manufacture, I was not surprised that it didn't work: I got an error message "switchroot: mount failed" and a kernel panic.
I looked at the init file in the initrd image and compared it to the one in the initrd for a working kernel: they were identical (not surprising, since the same mkinitrd was probably used for both). Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
