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'

root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.4 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet hfcmulti.dslot=1
[Linux-bzImage, setup=0x3000, size=0x1796901]


[0.000000] Unknown boot option 'hfcmulti.dslot=1': ignoring
[0.796125] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(0,0)


I tried first to delete "hfcmulti.dslot=1" at the kernel line but still have
the second line.

After checking the /boot/grub/menu.lst file, I saw that the line initdr was
missing for the kernel 2.6.27.4:
title       2.6.27.4
root
kernel

title       2.6.26.2
root
kernel
initdr

In /boot directory, I have initdr files only for 2.6.26.2 and 2.6.26.1.

Sorry I am quite weak concerning the kernel.
Can anyone help me?

Thanks a lot

Eric Cathelinaud
