Hallo Christian,

thanks for your info. I was also a little confused by all these configs and 
images ...

So you are using netboot and it seems that when having a root-fs via nfs _no_ 
disk driver is initialized even if it is compiled in (acording to your 
config). Funny, didn't know that.

Sebastian just send me a mail with his bootlog, and later also some zImage url 
I hope. He is running a 2.6.8 kernel and his kernel (scsi: sym2 2.1.18j) 
seems to detect the hard disk but fails later due to the same scsi timeouts. 
Luckily, he managed to install 2 IDE disks...

Greetings

Marc
