Kernel for linuxbios

[Sagiv Yefet]

Actually, I am using 2.4.24. 
Maybe I should upgrade to 2.6.*. 
but in the meanwhile what could be the problem?

The command is:

./objdir/sbin/mkelfImage -t bzImage-i386 --kernel=/home/sagivy/bzImage	
	--command-line="rw console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/ram0"  
	--initrd=/home/sagivy/initrd --output=/home/sagivy/bzImage.elf

initrd created by thinstation: 2646kb.

Sagiv.

Sorry for the late response.  Are you using
Linux 2.6.*.  If so give initramfs a try.
Here is a link to aid you in how:

I tried to use initrd - same problem.

use initrd, not ramdisk!
