I really don't know if this is right group (if not give me a hint where
to put that) to send my question but I will try. Yesterday I compiled
new kernel for etch installer. I added new section in
isolinux/isolinux.cfg pointing my new kernel and initrd.
LABEL linux29
kernel /install/vmlinuz
append vga=normal initrd=/install/initrd.gz ramdisk_size=9920
root=/dev/ram --
Next I produced new iso, burnt it and tried to install. D-i run ok but
after "Begin: Waiting for root file system... ..." he stopped with
message: "ALERT! /dev/ram does not exist. Dropping to a shell!"
I checked in /dev/ and there was no "ram" entry but "ram{0-9}".
What I did wrong? How can I fix it?
You may have built a kernel without the necessary initramfs support. You
also seem to be using an old iso image; current iso images do not set
root=/dev/ram.
Thanks Joey,
I will try tomorrow and let you know.
Regards,
Marcin
