i'm reading the "init" script contained in my current kernel's initramfs, and i can see how installing that kernel ran a post-install script that created "init" and hard-coded it to refer to my actual root filesystem. so what happens when i boot and specify an alternate root FS with "root="? somehow, that has to override the hardcoded partition name in "init", no? when is that done? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
