Re: Problems booting with initrd [was: Re: Testing 2.6.10 on sparc]



'allo,

   Well apparently I spoke too soon.  After a little over a week of
running the system,
I ended up rebooting the system.  Now I am back to my old problem with not being
able to boot because I can't get the kernel to load:


Rebooting with command: boot
Boot device: disk0   File and args: 
SILO Version 1.4.9
boot: Linux
Allocated 8 Megs of memory at 0x40000000 for kernel
Uncompressing image...
Loaded kernel version 2.4.27
Loading initial ramdisk (3358720 bytes at 0x1F808000 phys, 0x40C00000 virt)...
|
Remapping the kernel... FP Disabled


This is on an Ultra-2, with sarge/testing installed on it.  


cheers,

     mehul
