The kernel version is 2.2.18pre21 (it's a debian v2.2r7 potato).
I set dqb0 (ide cdrom) as boot device.

Hi,
I'm first trying again the kernel-image of 2.4.21.
I did a apt-get for the kernel-image, and got told to configure my
bootloader.
It already happened to me when trying to install a kernel-image, that the
machine wouldn't come up again (I have no root I want to scream).
So before rebooting I
What I find a bit confusing, is that I now have a link
/initrd.img that
points to a initrd in /boot. So far so good, but I can't find
any reference
to that initrd.img elsewhere. I think at boot time the
bootloader needs to
know what initrd to load? My /etc/abbot.conf just looks like
You have to pass the path to the initrd image. aboot.conf here:
0:1/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20 ro root=/dev/sda1 initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.20
1:1/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18 ro root=/dev/sda1 initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.18

ok, I think I'm understanding the boot process more now. Just in case, I
want to make a second boot configuration with the old kernel. While I have
vmlinuz-2.2.20-generic in /boot, I can't find any initrd but the new ones.

Debian did not use initrd per default with 2.2.x. Was it possible ?
Actually you cannot define a default boot configuration with aboot.conf.
You just define several boot scenarios, identified by the first number
in the line: 0, 1, 2 etc. You choose a specific scenario at the SRM
console:

hm, what I feared happened, the machine doesn't boot that kernel. A bit of
thinking would have made that obvious to me, I have root=/dev/rd/c0d0p2 in
aboot, but without DAC960 support in the kernel, it can't be mounted at boot
time.
A boot drb0 -flags 1 (which points to my 2.2.20 kernel) doesn't

Hi,
when trying to compile the 2.4.21 kernel I get compiler errors within
/drivers/md:

correct, since aboot tells me it doesn't know what to do with the first
partition (swap)
fortunately, I could get up again with p 2 (pointing to partition 2) and
1 (using aboot config 1) in aboot.
Seems I really have to
