Hi Jan,
I did remove the initrd mention in lilo.conf, and rerun it. About these other block devices and msdos partition, I can´t tell right now, but as soon as I get back home, I´ll check it (i´m eager to, actually).So here is some more to look for: Are the following block devices compiled into your kernel: IDE, BLK_IDE, BLK_DEVB_IDEDISK, IDE_GENERIC, BLK_DEV_IDEPCI, BLK_DEV_GENERIC, BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_PCI, IDEDMA_PCI_AUTO + the driver for the chipset used in your pc? You mentioned that Reiser is already compiled in but what about: MSDOS_PARTITION ? And then the almost borderline insulting one: did you remove/ommit the initrd specification from your /boot/grub/menu.lst in the entry that you boot from? Jan
Do you run a non-initrd kernel yourself? bruno
