Hi! Due to the fact that I can't make kernel-image-2.4.18-386 use ext3 on my root partition, I've compiled a custom kernel with ext3 compiled into it. I copied /boot/config-2.4.18-386 to /usr/src/linux/.config, ran make menuconfig and changed ext3 to "y", then compiled the kernel with make-kpkg --revision=mir.1.0 kernel_image and installed it. When booting, the kernel hangs at the cramfs(?), complaining not to be able to find the root partition. It seems my kernel wants to use an initrd.img that has not been created. What am I doing wrong? -Andre
