<g> looks like he included the relatively new flash technology drivers
(wish I had had them when building that mp3 box back then), but did
not include the "correct" hd/ethernet/cdrom/md/nbd(?)/rd/whatever driver
the root partition of his setup lives into the kernel ... of course
it could also be the device just died and left him with a
non-existant flash drive for root.

well, go back to the kernel he used before or include the
correct drivers in the new one ... if he did a "make
zlilo" in /usr/src/linux, it should be /boot/vmlinuz.old. Of
course, calling lilo after messing with the boot images would
be necessary. rtfh[0]

Any setuid root program that does an exec() somewhere is just a less
user friendly version of su. I have a wonderful proof of this claim,
but unfortunately the margin is too small to hold it :-)
