if 'init' hasn't started, then anything in initrd probably won't have happened yet. I'd try reinstalling your kernel. Boot from a floppy and re-run lilo or grub. Maybe even recompile your kernel. (well, it works for me when I get really odd error messages on startup). The only other possibility is bad hardware, but my guess is a bad kernel installation. tim http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~tnw13 Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur.
