Hi Curtis, unfortunately the CD-Drive ist not to blame. Recovery works fine with the OS Restore Images Cobalt provides but not wit the edited CD. Here's the errormessages I got :
Loading linux .... .... RAM Disk : Compressed image found at block 0 EXT2-fs warning : checktime reached, running e2fsck is recommended VFS : Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) [MS-DOS FS Rel. 12, FAT 0, check=n, conv=b, uid=0, nmask=022, bmap] ... Transaction block size = 512 [MS-DOS FS Rel. 12, FAT 0, check=n, conv=b, uid=0, nmask=022, bmap] .... Transaction block size = 512 VFS : Mounted root (iso9660 filesystem) read only. change_root : old root has d_count=1 Trying to unmount old root ... okay Freeing unused kernel memory : 44k freed Warning : unable to open an initial console kernel panic : No init found . Try passing init = option to kernel Does this ring a bell to anyone ?
