Hello, I had this[1] problem, and after investigating further, I think it's either lilo fault to write the initrd correctly or the initrd.img is generated badly. Here's my lilo.conf:
boot=/dev/hda install=/boot/boot.b map=/boot/map prompt timeout=50 default=425 lba32 image=/vmlinuz label=default root=/dev/hda2 read-only initrd=/initrd.img image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.25-1-686 label=425 root=/dev/hda2 read-only initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.4.25-1-686 I've tried changing the value of DELAY to 10 in /etc/mkinitrd/mkinitrd.conf and did dpkg-reconfigure kernel-image-<version> which generates the new initrd.img, run lilo afterwards but no delay occurs, and no modules for the ide disk are loaded. I've mounted the newly generated initrd.img-<version> and all the files seem to be in it. I've also run the lilo with -v 3 and it seems to do everyting correctly. Any ideas ?
