Hi Hemmann, well, I don't have a good reason to use initrd, but this is an attempt to try putting gentoo running on my server. I'll kick out ufs but I don't think that this is the problem. Yes, before try to use initrd I put everthing I need *built in* but didn't work. Any other clue?
Thanks, Leandro. 2006/5/21, Hemmann, Volker Armin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Really? I can't imagine any. Second, what is this ufs stuff? This is linux. Kick out ufs, make the partitions linux, with ext3 or reiserfs or xfs or jfs. Make a udf, iso9660 and fat module, and don't build the other fs (except sysfs,proc etc). Build everything needed to boot INTO the kernel. Again, what are the advantages of a initrd? Except that it is another instance in boot that costs time and may be introduce a cause of failure? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
