Damn small linux? Or Knoppix? Anyway, starting from Knoppix 3.6, the
initrd was too big, so I had to "-append ramdisk_size=1000000".

What exactly is going wrong? Does it say something about not being able to
mount root 01:03? This was my problem before I made the ramdisk larger.
However, with a Knoppix 3.3 it worked even without that.
