After seeing this thread, I installed 2.5.65 and the latest
module-init-tools to see how it would work. It compiled without a hitch.
However, I get a kernel panic when I try to boot into it. I'm not quite
sure what I'm doing wrong... What's the best way to track down the source
of a kernel panic? The very last line says something about "process tried
to kill init".

I suspect something is also wrong with grub (i have the latest stable
version from portage) passing parameters to the kernel as it doesn't start
up in framebuffer mode like my 2.4 kernel does (I'm passing the new kernel
the same parameters). I wonder if it's not finding my root drive too? The
messages go by too fast for me to follow them...

Any suggestions?
