I hope Guillame's advices can help you in rebooting in your linux box succesfully. I'll add my two cents: The kernel panic you see is due to a missing kernel component in order to mount one of your filesystems. There are several things that can go wrong: for instance 1) You did not include the support for your filesystem in the kernel. 2) You have compiled the support of your filesystem as a module. In this case you should build the initrd and pass the initrd= option to yaboot (just add it in yaboot.conf and do ybin). 3) You did all the required steps I listed above, but did not include initial ramdisk support and/or cramfs support in your monolithic kernel. In this case, the kernel will not be able to read modules from the ramdisk. I hope this can help you Giuseppe -- Giuseppe Lavagetto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Dipartimento di Scienze Fisiche ed Astronomiche - Università di Palermo
