initial boot for install

["Derik barclay" <derik.barclay@home.com>]

I have a DEC AXP PCI33 that I have been trying to boot (for install) using a
2.1_r2 CD distribution.

I load MILO then boot using "fd0:linux root=/dev/fd0".
it boots appears to have detected all my hardware (except my second eather
card), then prompts me to insert the root floppy. When I do I get:
"Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 02:00"

I am using root1440.bin taken from
"<CD>:\dists\slink\main\disks-alpha\1999-03-05\".

Is this correct? what am I missing?
