My problem was that kernel didn't have built-in support for reiserfs (my '/' partition) and the initrd stuff didn't load it. I've resolved it by compiling reiserfs into kernel (as opposed to having it compiled as module). Could it be your problem as well? -- - Andrey ~ In theory, practice and theory are the same, but in practice they are different (Larry McVoy) ~ -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
