Hi, After trying several suggestions from the people here, I've now explicitly built a kernel with initrd and ram disk support. I've created the kernel package using: make-kpkg --initrd -rev Custom.4 kernel_image After installing it put the initrd-2.4.12-ac6 into /boot I've created a symlink to it named /boot/initrd I've added the line initrd=/boot/initrd to lilo.conf and ran lilo
(All this running 2.2.19pre17 and latest packages from testing) But it still doesn't boot. Now there are more dot's appearing after the LILO, but after they finish the machine still resets! 2.2.19pre17 is running fine. BTW, maybe this matters: I have a VIA C3 800 on a Shuttle FV24 board with integrated Savage4, ethernet, soundcard etc... I didn't yet have the time to try to make a boot floppy ... I would be gratfull for any further suggestions. Many thanks in advance! best regards, Balazs
