Boot from UbuntuLive or the like (must have a grub boot loader), mount your hard drive and copy the initrd.gz vmlinuz to /root. (found in install.i386) Reboot from cd an press escape to get to the grub command line. grub> root (hd0,1) <= your hard drive grub> kernel /root/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 grub> boot Should work, I had the same problem with an older server. The cd booted everything except the server :( Hope I could help -- Dig"IT"al Ninja
