Thanks, Mike, for your tipp, unfortunately that didn't make any difference :-( Anyway I got now the ACPI patch (Dec '02) working with a stock 2.4.20 kernel with a debian testing/unstable system. I also tried to compile the 2.4.21-rc3 with the newest ACPI patch (23th May), but that stopped the boot procedure in the same manner: [...] Mounting local filesystems... nothing was mounted [...] Setting the System clock using the Hardware Clock as reference... [---stop---] What really surprises me, is that I did use the same Kernel parameters (.config) as starting point that did work with 2.4.20. Has someone discover the same strangeness, or know how to get more details about why the root (ext3) partition couldn't be mounted? Thanks, Niko
