I am also seeing this but not on every boot. My work around is to add a 'sleep 2' to the nash script after the modules are loaded. Compling everything in also worked. This is discussed in the thread: "current linus bk, error mounting root". I believe the answer is that it is not a kernel problem, instead the init scripts have to be fixed. -- Jon Smirl [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
