You're probably using an Apple partitioning scheme. In order to read from Apple partitions, you'll need to have support for that in your kernel. Turn on: CONFIG_PARTITION_ADVANCED and CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION. In the future, to make kernel configuration more simple, you should do a "make defconfig" before configuration. This ensures that you have sane defaults set. Good luck! -Joe -- [email protected] mailing list
