Hi,

I am trying to get the xvesa ramdisk to run, but I am having problems.

I downloaded initrd-x.gz into my BL2 directory, and changed boot,bat to use
this, but I get a kernel panic - can't mount root fs.

If I mount the old ramdisk version and try to gunzip and mount initrd-x, I get
"kernel does not support minix"

Do I need a different kernel? Or am I doing something else wrong?

Thanks

Ian
