Hi Niall, hi everybody,

Thank you for the hint.

We use our own fai-kernel and after recompiling it with devfs and iso9660 
and after uncommenting the line:
CDROMDEVVAR=/proc/sys.... 
in /usr/share/mkinitrd-cd/linuxrc

...the installation reached the following error:

----snip----------------

/linuxrc: /sbin/prepareroot: not fond

----snap----------------

and indeed, I can't find it either.
Do you know what's wrong?

Thanks in Advance

regards Thomas W.
