bf2.4 problem
Hello
Im installing debian by the network using pxe booting, but i found a strange problem, and searched the webb now for an answer. If i pxeboot the installation with the 2.2.20 disk's it oki,but i need som features from the 2.4.x series. So i made an installation with the old boot-floppies, and installed everything i needed.
When i decided to upgrade the kernel i got some strange problems.
The computer is a motorola cpn5360.

Partition check:

-As it turns out, the 2.2.x kernel manage to find hdb-
But the 2.4.x cant...
I really need the 2.4.x kernel, but i cant figure out what support i need in the kernel..
