Hi,
The kernel barfs when it looks for the ide module (the ide-cd
actually if i remember correctly).
We tried with to install the 2.4.18-18.7.x.cern kernel under
/opt/local/linux/nginstallroot/7.3/ to get the right modules but we
discovered that the kernel under tftp isn't the cern one since its compiled
with gcc 3 (why its called 2.4.18-18.7.x.cern if it isn't ?)
Cheers,
Kostas
