The install works perfectly, but boot/loader fails to load the kernel. Booting "kernel" fails with 'Don't know how to load module "/kernel"', and boot kernel.GENERIC fails for unknown reasons. (It loads partly, but then falls back to the loader). Is there an easy way to get this to work, or do I need to start thinking about adding a seperate root disk?
