I don't see anything obivous. I take it you compiled your own kernel. Did you use make-kpkg or the older make dep, etc? If you used kpkg then I would suggest you enable CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y and try it again. I used to compile the old way but find that kernel-package is the better method, now. If you have already done that, all I can suggest is that you try installing a debian 2.6.18 image. I don't recall what your running but I think etch is at 2.6.18-4 now. Testing just upgraded to 2.6.21-2. Sorry for the late reply. I had a wedding to atten today and just got back. Wayne -- Real computer scientists don't program in assembler.
