Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.60
Severity: important


This might be a bug in the kernel or udev or something else, but
failure to mount root fs smells like an initrd problem to me.

Bootloader: quik, with ramdisk_size 8192 (even tested 16384, with no luck)
Rootfs: ext2 on ide
Module for the harddisk:
lsmod says "ide_disk" on 2.6.15, but the
module is called ide-disk.ko and that module is present in booth the
working initrd.img (2.6.15-1-powerpc) and the non-working
(2.6.16-1-powerpc). ext2.ko also present in the initrd in booth
initrds.

Debuging is problematic on this box since I don't have a working
serial console, nor can I interact with the bootloader via the
keyboard, so If a kernel+initrd doesn't work, I have to boot from the
woody installation floppy-disks and rescue from a shell in the
installation program.
