Re: Help! Bug with lilo and initrd?

["Andrew Hall" <andrew.hall@bluereef.com.au>]

I'm not using cramfs. The compressed root is ext2 fs because I need to load
it Read-write. What initrd patch do I need for 2.2.20 (I got it from
kernel.org) as I thought it already contained the latest initrd sources?
