problem with kernel-images

[Norbert Tretkowski]

Hi,

I tried to use Herbert's precompiled kernel-images on my pws 433au,
but booting failed with the following messages:

,
| RAMDISK: cramfs filesystem found at block 0
| RAMDISK: image too big! (4968/4096 blocks)
| VFS: Cannot open root device sda2 or unknown-block(0,0)
| Please append a correct root= boot option
| Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
`

This happens with 2.6.0-test9-1-generic and 2.6.0-test11-1-generic,
but not with my own compiled kernels. The root= boot option is
correct, and the initrd option is also added to the aboot config file.

Any hints?

Norbert
