Sure, otherwise I would not have asked about this :-)

Thanks! I didn't know. Then it could be something else it the minirt, couldn't it?

I think we may have the problem here: For pure 64 bits booting, we may need 64-bits busybox (static) in the minirt?
Because the minirt worked perfectly with 64-bits kernels, I didn't suspect it had to be modified.
Would it suffice to replace busybox with a standard Debian version, or is some compilation necessary?
