Hi, I've been searching on google but found no way to boot a 2.4 kernel without initrd. I indeed don't have any scsi hdd, so i don't think i need it.
Any help appreciated, thanks in advance. > -----Original Message----- > From: Hans Ekbrand [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: samedi 16 février 2002 21:13 > To: debian-user@lists.debian.org > Subject: Re: Kernel 2.4, 8 megs of ram and kernel panic > > [...] > > Do you really need to boot through initrd?
