Perhaps the version you are using is not as friend with pmdisk as mine. Give
it a try :(

Sure:
shakuras:~# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
cpu : 7455, altivec supported
clock : 707MHz
revision : 3.3 (pvr 8001 0303)
bogomips : 710.65
machine : PowerBook6,3
motherboard : PowerBook6,3 MacRISC3 Power Macintosh
detected as : 287 (iBook G4)
pmac flags : 0000000a
L2 cache : 256K unified
memory : 256MB
pmac-generation : NewWorld
The kernel version, I must say it is a very rare config, but here it is:
shakuras:~# uname -a
Linux shakuras 2.6.8.1 #3 Tue Aug 31 02:48:50 CEST 2004 ppc GNU/Linux
(yes, I build a kernel per day: I am very newbie and do a looooot of tests :P)
'a grosso modo', my kernel has only, as modules, the USB stuff and the
therm_adt746x. Everything else is built-in. This version uses preemtible
kernel.
Need any more info?
I hope this helps:
