I add the console support and there is output. Thanks.
My machine has no disks and I need initrd. So I took initrd from Thinstation and build the elf file by the command :
./objdir/sbin/mkelfImage -t bzImage-i386 --kernel=/home/sagivy/bzImage --command-line="rw console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/ram0" --ramdisk=/home/sagivy/initrd --output=/home/sagivy/bzImage.elf
and I got panic message:
RAMDISK: Couldn't find valid RAM disk image starting at 0. Freeing initrd memory: 11922k freed Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 01:00
I also had ram disk support.
Any idea?
Sagiv.

I tried without success:
Thinstation (etherboot)Kernel from kernel.org.
Is there any specific version I need to use of those kernels?
No, all Linux kernels work fine.
Are there any patches made for the kernels that I didn't use? Where
can
I find them.
No. No patches needed at all.
What could be the problem?
The biggest problem is the low availability of crystal balls nowadays ;)
Maybe you did not compile your kernel with serial console support or did not enable serial console on the command line?
