I install debian-40r4a in VMware on one machine and upgrade the kernel from 2.6.18-6-686 to 2.6.26.3. I don't make an initrd image and comment the initrd line in grub's menu.lst file. I can boot the new 2.6.26 kernel and the "uname r" reports 2.6.26.3. I make an initrd image with 2.6.18-6-686 and un-comment the lines in menu.lst as: initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26.3. This works also.
But on another machine with the same debian-40, 2.6.26.3 kernel package and VMware. The system cannot boot the new 2.6.26 kernel with an initrd image or without it. It presents error messages like: "...root file system...", "...insert root floppy and press enter...", "blah, blah..." I hear that people don't care about these kind of things on redhat fedora dist. So what's the matter with the debian dist? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
