If you say so. I don't really understand how that stuff works. I didn't realise that it was possible to use a cpio archive at all unless it was linked into the kernel image (that is, as an initramfs). I vaguely recall having to convert an initramfs cpio archive into extfs image in order to get it to work as initrd. Finn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
