Hi,

I use an EPIA MII6000E motherboard with CF-Card as hard-drive.
Since this device can't boot from CF-Card I boot from network via PXELINUX.
Works fine for kernel 2.4.25.

Now I want to change to kernel 2.6.15.4.

I boot an initrd, execute "linuxrc" and at this point I can mount the CF-Card
as "hde1", inspect the file-system, ...

Is the proper IDE driver loaded, are you sure the drive is still at hde1
with 2.6?

Hmm proper IDE driver...
1) I can mount the CF-Card "by hand" and inspect the filesystem. And it looks good. I can use the file-system in "near single-user-mode".
2) In my "linuxrc" I do the following to load the modules:
------------------------- [ BEGIN linuxrc ] -------------------------
...
PCIC="ide_cs yenta_socket pcmcia_core pcmcia rsrc_nonstatic"
for Module in $PCIC
do
        modprobe $Module
done
lsmod
...
if [ "$DEBUG" != "" ] ; then
    /bin/sh < /dev/console
fi
...
------------------------- [ END   linuxrc ] -------------------------
Is this indication enough, that I use the  proper IDE driver?

Has the driver (I think "ide_cs"?) which seems to work from the initial RAM-disk to be loaded again before the kernel mounts the root- fs?
Thanx for any explaination.

VFS: Cannot open root device "hde1" or unknown-block(0,0)
                                                      ^^^
Lack of driver. If there was a driver, you would see a non-0,0 number at
least.
