Maybe you didn't select the initrd in kernelloader or you specified a wrong "root=..." parameter. |

| Code: | | ramdisk_size=16384 root=/dev/ram0 |
... I think, the size may be redundant. Modules to enable would depend on whether you have a fat or slim ps2. If you have the slim I'll post the kl config that works for me. |
