To clarify what I meant by sentence #1: I should have seen that I ought to use 21:05 from the do_mounts.c patch I applied to -test1-mm2 As far as sentence #2, the boot messages seem to indicate that the kernel understood "root=2105" as referring to (33,5), but still did not mount root. This got me really confused. As far as having it working, I'm waiting to get home to try your suggestions. The only other though thing I was trying to convey is that I don't understand why -test1-mm2 with patch works while -test2-mm1 does not.
