Nope, it still does not see /dev/hda. (strangely, after shellout, instead of reboot, I also don't see /dev/hda, though the image has just been succesfully copied over).
You said there were some other things to try? I am trying a parallel method below, which is not to solve the udev problem, but rather use the master script to dd the MBR in, to fix the device.map, etc. > grub.conf?

Attempted to kill init! Now, going further, If I edit the grub command line I can boot but not mount root. This might be /root and /boot separate? So I could copy /boot over into /root, and then not mount /boot, and delete the /boot partition, and enlarge /root over it, right. I'll see if this makes a difference. cheers, Jan -- .~. /V\ Jan Groenewald /( )\ www.aims.ac.za ^^-^^ ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Sisuite-users mailing list Sisuite-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sisuite-users
