Hi I took a look at your config and menu.lst So whats missing seems to be an initrd image which holds all the modules your kernel needs. Your config uses some of em. You should build the initrd mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18 2.6.18 and update-grub -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
