Bug#248667: Fail to mount root with root=/dev/fd0

[Bill Allombert <ballombe@debian.org>]

Package: kernel-image-2.4.25-atari
Version: 2.4.25-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I have a Falcon 030 with 4Mb of RAM. I have a custom floppy with
the root filesystem.

I pass to the kernel root=/dev/fd0 to boot. It work fine with 2.2.20,
but not with 2.4.20-5, and neither with 2.4.25-1. The boot sequence is
similar but end up with 

VFS: can't mount /

(unfortunately the monitor just died so I cannot acertain the message)

If you need I try to reproduce the problem I might be able to find a
TV-set but I do not have any at hand.

Cheers,
