Your initrd needs to have the via_pata drive included. The simplest trick is to try reinstalling the kernel on the target machine. Kernel package install hooks will rebuild the initrd image - hopefully with the via_pata driver included. Failing this, you'll have to read mkinitrd(8) and friends on how you can manually build an initrd image with via_pata included. - Raja _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
