I've got Debian Sarge running on my laptop, using the stock 2.4.23 kernel. However, any attempt to boot 2.6.7-1 results in successful detection of hard disks and some other hardware (rockets by too fast to read), then many repetitions of:
modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.7/modules.dep: No such file or directory (I do have a modules.dep and even ran depmod manually to be sure it was there.) Then after multiple modprobe errors, I get: pivot_root: No such file or directory /sbin/init: 424: cannot open /dev/console: No such file Kernel panix: Attempted to kill init! ... and a permanent stop, as you might expect. I get this with both the stock Debian 2.6.7-686 kernel (this box uses a Mobile Celeron) and with a custom-compiled one. Any suggestions? I'm not sure what information would be helpful to kernel experts -- if requested I'd be glad to post my lilo.conf, partition table, etc. The inability to find a device makes me wonder if this is about the new system for naming devices, but I don't know enough about it to even speak intelligently. Thanks for any help. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabootu's Minister of Proofreading http://www.jabootu.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
