Installing kernel 2.4.0-test11 on iBook

[Charles Brunet <brunet01@gel.ulaval.ca>]

Hi!

I'm trying to install Debian 2.2 on my new iBook (the blue one, with
Firewire. I don't know how I should call it). I tried to follow most of
Hadess' advices.

Now I want to compile a 2.4.0 kernel to be able to use video acceleration,
pmu and other useful stuff. When I boot with my newly compiled kernel, I got
the error:

reuest_module[block-major-3]: Root fs not mounted
VFS: Cannot aper roor device hda13

I guess it's a badly configured option, but since it's my first experience
compiling kernel, I don't know what it could be.


Even if I'm not able to boot, I tryed to replace the novideo option in my
yaboot.conf to video=aty128fb:cmode:10:depth:8: but then I get a flickering
screen almost unreadable and duplicated in two columns (if you can figure
out what I mean). What am I missing?

Thank you!
