Right. Thanks for letting me know.
I've done more testing and it looks like 2.6.6 and 2.6.7 are fine but
prior 2.6 kernels are not. I presume they don't have the patch applied
that fixes the root parameter issue (cf. the message link I gave
earlier). Will this be fixed you think or will older 2.6 kernels maybe
be pulled from the archive prior to the Sarge release?
As a side note, thanks to your help, there are now MondoRescue packages
for the first time that will work off stock Debian kernels. (Not in
Debian yet but at the URL I gave in my first posting.)
Best regards
