Adrian, are you able to test this, and maybe debug!
Thanks.

> I'm trying to use grub to boot the standard Debian kernel 2.4.9 on a machine
> where the root partition is on a DAC960 controler. Here is what happens
> during
> the boot procedure:
>
> - grub loads the kernel and its initrd
> - the kernel boots
> - the initrd is mounted by the kernel
> - the DAC960 module is loaded from the initrd
> - the card is detected by the module
> - partitions are detected correctly (including the root partition)
> - kernel stops with a message like this: "I do not find my root and I want
> to cry"
>
> Here is what I have in /boot/grub/menu.lst:
>
> title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.9-686
> root (hd0,0)
> kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.9-686 root=/dev/rd/c0d0p1 ro
> initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.9-686
>
> I do not think this is a bug in kernel-image-2.4.9-686 because lilo is able to
> boot the exact same kernel.

> And starting with version 0.90-9, grub works with the DAC960 controler. It is
> able to boot a 2.2.19 kernel without initrd with this in /boot/grub/menu.lst:

> root (hd0,0)
> kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.19-compact root=/dev/rd/c0d0p1 ro
