i have a server that's dead, when it boots up it gives the

booting with linux init=/bin/sh, it still complains about not
finding initrd, and gives the same message. booting linux rescue
doesn't seem to phase it either, neither does specifying root= and
kernel=. gives the same messages upon boot every time. is there
some option you can compile with to make the kernel not take user-
specified options on boot, or is there something else wrong?
None of those options (init, root, kernel) change the initrd setting.
you can try "initrd=" it might skip it.
Are you using LILO or GRUB?
Are you using SCSI devices? For the rootfs?
