i'm still looking for how to keep the initrd mounted after booting on my x86_64 system. can't you do that anymore? it's been a while since i tried that, and i thought the kernel parm "retain_initrd" would do it, and leave it mounted at /initrd. apparently not. am i misremembering? is there a way? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
