I don't have any experience with the 2.6 kernels, but I've booted 2.4 kernels over the last few years withour a ramdisk. The only modules I've had are for USB and firewire (which are not needed for boot on my 8500). vinai -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
