Hi

I have problems to install the Kernel from Knoppix on a Debian 3.0/2.4.18-xfs-bf2.4 System.

I have 2 Harddisks,
sda1
sda2
sda3 (/)

hdb1 /data (xfs)

While booting, the ide-drive seems to be recognized, but gives errors:

task_no_data_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
task_no_data_intr: status=0x { DriveStatusError }
.
.
.
ide: late registration of driver
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2
.
.
.
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-8, errno = 2
VFS: Cannot open root device "803" or 08:03
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:03

What I have done so far:

I've set up Debian 3.0 with the 2.4.18-xfs-bf2.4 Kernel CD-Image.
Now I want to change the Kernel to the same as on the Knoppix 3.4 CD with the same configuration as on the 3.4 CD.

I downloaded the Kernel Source,
un-tar'ed
applied the Kernel Patch witch patch -p1 < ~blabla.kernel.patch
then copied the .config from the knoppix-CD
and made a make menuconfig

There I chose
Filesystem /
* XFS filesystem support,
* Quota support
* Realtime support

then I compiled the kernel and installed it.



What would you do?

I just need a running debian 3.0 system with a minimal configuration, xfs, the e100 driver and apm or/and acpi.

I tried already to install a 2.4.25 Kernel, but it seems, that apm is not working for my machine and I would need acpi to turn off the computer. But I don't know which acpi and apm configuration options for the kernel are needed to do that.

Who can help me?

Greetings
Michael
