Hi Holger,
I have got an IDE hard desk, not SATA. I think it's coming from the initrd missing. I don't understand why there is an error when launching the command: mkinitramfs-kpkg -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27.4 2.6.27.4 The error is : cp: operand of the target file missing after `/tmp/tmp.XXXXmDVe5B/sbin/'
I tried to do 'update-initramfs -u -k all' but still have the same problem: cp: operand of the target file missing after `/tmp/tmp.XXXX<something>/sbin/'
The software is using cp for some reason but something is missing and I don't know what. I installed mkinitramfs and libbash (needed by mkinitramfs). Did I miss something?
Best regards, Eric

Hi,
I followed Debian_Getting_Started chapter in the wiki. There wasn't any error but, after rebooting, the kernel crashed:
Booting 'Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.27.4'

Have you forgotten to add SATA support to the kernel and renaming the hardisk to sda (fstab)?
