Thanks.
I already did this command. Now it boots but unfortunately, there is a
instruction in this zImage which reboots quickly and reboots quickly ....
Because this very quick reboot, I have not the time to see and write the
screen . I think , may be, the test of USB Port (not present) crashes the
boot process. I wrote to Dan to tell him what can I do.
I success to boot with zImage 2.2.10 from linuxppc, but the release
installed is 2.2.15-2.9.0). In this case,
Is it possible to build myself a zImage without this test ?
My system : rs/6000 43 P 120Mhz (7248)

Because this very quick reboot, I have not the time to see and write the
screen . I think , may be, the test of USB Port (not present) crashes the
boot process. I just saw : USB Test then Keyboard error then scsi not
detected and ended with VFS Panic cannot open root device 08:02 ...and reboot.
I success to boot with zImage 2.2.10 from linuxppc, and type root=/dev/sda2
on the line boot and then load your new 1.2 ramdisk_image diskette (without
seg fault of first release).
But the release installed is 2.2.15-2.9.0. The system works. In this case,
Is it possible to build myself a zImage without this USB test ? or ...
