I have a box ((Fujitsu-Siemens PRIMERGY RX300 S3) within Debian 4.0 "Etch" and 2.4.31 kernel .
I very want upgrade it to kernel 2.6.21 but i don't know how do it. I installed kernel package 2.6.18 from Debian distribution but after reboot accured "kernel panic" (don't detect scsi megaraid). After I compiled new kernel. I installed necessary package: udev, yaird , initramfs-tools.
I tried create initrd file for GRUB used yaird. It was failure. Yaird said "yaird error: can't open /proc/bus/input/devices (fatal): I tried create initrd uses initramfs. It was succesfully but when i reboot box was not succesfully because appear message:

---

Begin: Running /scripts/init-bottom ...
mount: Mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: No such file or directory
Done.
mount: Mounting /sys on /root/sys failed: No such file or directory mount: Mounting /proc on /root/proc failed: No such file or directory Target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init

BusyBox v1.01 (Debian 1:1.01-4) Built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off / #

I don't know what i do wrong. :(

Thanks very much indeed for any advice or pointers to useful information.

Regards
