Just tried without: Ramdisk too big message vanished. Still getting a 
kernel-panic as above, i.e. unable to mount root fs.

I have plain IDE, with ext3 formatted partitions. HDA gets properly detected 
while booting.

Why does the kernel reboot automatically btw? I'd love to read more about the 
error messages, but I forgot my digicam today.

Reasonable. Will check what the original ramdisk is doing.... Maybe right 
after installing 2.0.5.
