Did you specify a drive also for initrd.img? /initrd.img is not enough, it should be hde1:/initrd.img if hde1 is the right partition.
Hi Peter,
I use the grub menu to boot. Find below my filo Config and grub menu.lst. Where do I have to specify the drive? Both, /vmlinuz and /initrd.img are symlinks, could this cause the problem? Both are fetched from sda5 when booted, the root filesystem itself is on sda2 ("linux notation").
Thanks
Andi
