root filesystem

[Igor Gueths]

Hi. I actually fixed that problem, but now have to deal with modprobe errors that it can't locate module netBF. Could doing a depmod-a in the old kernel fix this problem? Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure quite what 0302 refers to, I might just try playing with system.map some more trying different combinations. I used fdisk to partition the disk to ext2, and it boots fine with the old kernel. I just want to make sure there's nothing that I'm missing. And if you want, just let me know if you want me to post system.map to the list. Thanks again!
