Hey! The problem with the no init found is gone! So, the cause was
in the initrd after all! Altough, it booted a lot further, it still

I don't really understand what's happening here. 2.6.15 images install
perfectly and use initramfs-tools, but 2.6.16 seems to get totally

The system is running 2.4.27.

Marco,
Attached is the info you requested, at least I hope it is.
You asked for 'udevtest -a -p /sys/block/hdetc', but udevtest only gave me
