Hi.
This is the first time I'm working with Moblin.
I got a Moblin installation image for Menlow (CrownBeach platform) with ubuntu 
8.04, kernel 2.6.24-18/19-lpia and I was able to install the image with no 
problems.

As the distribution came with no source code, I used git to clone a linux 
2.6.28-rc7 kernel on to the platform and compile the kernel.
The compilation went through fine and after make install, I found that the grub 
directory did not exist in the /boot.
I searched the archives and found a link that said that I will have to mount 
the /dev/sda1 on boot.

After the mount, I was able to see the menu.lst file in the /boot/grub/ 
directory and I added the following lines to the grub.

title       Ubtuntu 8.04, kernel 2.6.28-rc7
root      (hd0,0)
kernel    /vmlinuz-2.6.28-rc7 ro boot=disk resume=/dev/sda3 ht=on 
root=/boot/unionfs


I used mkinitramfs to create a new initrd.img file and when I rebooted, but the 
kernel didn't boot with the following error messages:

WARNING: Could not open the directory /lib/modules/2.6.28-rc7
FATAL: Could not open /lib/modules/2.6.28-rc7/modules.dep.temp No such file or 
directory
            Exe used greatest stack depth

Begin: Mounting root file system

Begin: Running /scripts/local-top
Done

Begin: Waiting for root file system ... ...

After this the kernel is just stuck and doesn't boot beyond this.  I have 
installed UNIONFS and SQUASHFS.
I searched the archives and found similar questions, but having tried all the 
fixes mentioned there I've gotten nowhere so far.

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.



Regards,

Nithyananda Siva Jeganathan,

Intel Corporation
