Hi Stuart, Everyone!

I succeeded to compile the kernel with switching off the vga console as you advised. I copied the root filesystem from the qemu image with the installed ARMedslack onto an SD card. With fdisk i created three partitions on it. One dos type with the kernel and the bootloader (haret-0.3.8), one linux swap, and an ext2 with the root filesystem. I inserted the card into the pda and started the bootloader. After the penguin logo appeared and the kernel massages started coming up on the pda console, the booting stopped with an error:
VFS: Cannot open root device "mmcblk0p3" or unknown-block(0,0)
On my laptop with x86 processor and Slackware 12.2, after i plug in an SD card it can be seen in /dev/mmcblk0, and the partitions on it are /dev/mmcblk0p1, /dev/mmcblk0p2, etc. Do you think this kind of naming convention is also valid under the ARM environment. What do you think could be the device name of an sd card inserted into a pda, and the device names of the partitions on it?

Thanks:
Tibor Kendl
