Bug#359926: net boot bug

["Jamie White" <jatos.software@gmail.com>]

Hi

I am using Debian etch with a custom compiled 2.6.24 kernel on the
tftpd server, with the appropriate modules directory on the system
compiled it with

I made my initramfs with the following command:

mkinitramfs /initrd-netboot-2.6.24.img.gz 2.6.24

When my tftp server is setup etc etc, it loads the kernel and initrd
fine and boots fine right up until it try to mount the FS, whereupon I
get the mount : i/o error, not going to bother repeating the error as
its the same as the original one.

Incidently, it did boot twice. Also, google turned me up a bug report
for the same bug on Ubuntu -
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/breezy/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/19196
- they seem to have fixed it on Dapper.
