I have gutsy installed on my  G4 powerpc.

It looks to me like the ide driver is not getting loaded.

Here's what I tried.

boot with:
boot> Linux break=premount

At the initramfs prompt the command  "ls /proc/"shows no directory for ide.
IIRC there is also no /proc/partitions.

I've sucessefully  loaded ide-core with modprobe at the the initramfs
prompt for both break=top and break=premount.

At this point if I exit the initramfs shell and continue I get a lot of
device-mapper errors.

Unfortunately as Rogério said there is no  boot log or dmesg at this
piont.

The initrd is probably to large to attach.  But I can extract it and compress a 
smaller part of it to attach.
What part of it will be most helpful?

Thanks

digger
