hi Derek,<BR>
<BR>
In fact, I installed via apt-get the kernel image 2.6.8 (for i686) but I have the Kernel Panic error for this image... I changed in the grub boot loader /dev/hdax to /dev/sdax but nothing happened. In fact, can I change from 2.4 with i386 to 2.6 with i686 or not ? The error code is 431 with message indicating that /dev/console can't be found ... I make MAKEDEV console but nothing changed<BR>
