Thats probably the case....it doesnt know of msdos yet. Try compiling it
into the kernel.
To remove the kernel: do you have the old kernel laying around in /boot as
a backup boot option? Then just boot it instead of 2.2.10.
If not, just install the 2.0.* kernel with dselect and boot into it.
Keep the 2.2.10 in the system (unless you really reallly short on
diskspace), it might come in handy.
