Hi. As you suggested I installed with kernel 2.4 and then upgraded to 2.6 (kernel-image-2.6-686).
When I reboot the kernel 2.6 does not start. With the acpi=off option the booting stack with the following errors: pivot_root: No such file or directory /sbin/init: 424: cannot open dev/console: No such file Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! With google search I found that this problem should due to the SATA driver, but I dont know how to solve it. I also tried changing hdaX with sdaX in grub list and etc/stab but nothing changes. I can load kernel 2.4, yet. Any ideas to solve this problem? Thanks, Mirco
