Ok; thanks for the tip, but when I do this I can boot into sid, but it
hangs on "Found Ramdisk at...".

I previously had this problem (whan I accidentially erased my /boot on
hda when installing Sid) when booting into Redhat 6.2 with the standard
kernel.

I fixed the problem by installing RedHat again (only updating) so I got
a new /boot, but this didn't help and I finally installed a new kernel.

So I think the problem now will be solved if I install a new kernel in Sid.

So I tried that, but it can't find make :).  Well I forgot to take the
simple install (when installing) and I checked nothing.

Does anyone know how I can get this install menu back ... so I can check
simple... or what packages must I install to get make en stuff?

Thanks in advance,
