Unfortunately I don't have time to test some installation booting CD
with your latest kernel (2.4.20-pre11-ben0) right now, but problem when
my 600Mhz 14" iBook don't see HDD with CD inserted into Combo drive is
really fixed... thank you
it was annoying to see "Kernel panic: VFS: Unable mount root fs ..." and
after some time thinking about what could happen with my hard drive
remember, that I forget to eject CD ;), as it was with all kernels up to
2.4.19-ben0 at least (it's the oldest kernel I've in my yaboot config)
P.S. 2.4.20-pre7-ben0 works fine too
