kernel 2.6.18-4-k7 won't boot

[Rick Pasotto <rick@niof.net>]

I upgraded my system today (etch) and when I rebooted this new kernel
complained about running out of compressed data and that I needed to
specify a correct root= parameter. Booting with kernel 2.6.17-4-k7 still
works fine and it uses the same root= parameter. My hard drive is SATA.

Is this a known problem with this kernel?
