The yaird initrd that actually worked panicked out about no devfs. However, the mkinitrd one boots up just fine, without devfs. The "kernel modules no enabled" message I get --the config certainy has them "yes". Some things do modprobe but alsa and a few others do not. There is no devfs mounted, haven't had this in ages. devpts is. My /dev has hundreds of entries, only a handfull of which are actually associated with a real device. So if I am "static", why can't I get the rest of the 2.6.14 modules to work? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
