I reduced the image size, so that it's way less than the 2.6.39 kernel size (old is 2.6.39. a is 3.0) -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5.6M Jul 24 12:16 /boot/linux.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6.3M Jul 23 20:50 /boot/linux.old But that didn't help. :( I'm currently trying to bisect it, but that turns out to be hard due to various compile issues and stuff like that... --=20 Greetings, Michael.
