After I do it via /boot.config, it fails, with an error: "Invalid format", in cases when: a) kernel is gzip-ed b) kernel has statically compiled md root, which was gzip-ed, before being embedded into kernel c) kernel has statically compiled md root, which was uzip-ed, before being embedded into kernel d) kernel has statically compiled md root, which wasn't compress-ed, before being embedded into kernel It works, only with regular kernel. Is this a bug or what? I suspect size of a kernel, confuses STAGE 2 boot, in non-a) cases. Domagoj Smolčić
