Hello,

Maybe what you suggest could be right ;-)

Martin Fahr send me that:

--- C34/fs/partitions/check.c Mon Sep 9 20:39:52 2002
+++ /tmp/check.c Tue Sep 10 09:39:47 2002
@@ -327,7 +327,7 @@
        devfs_auto_unregister(dev->disk_de, slave);
        if (!(dev->flags & GENHD_FL_DEVFS))
                devfs_auto_unregister (slave, dir);
- for (part = 1, p++; part < max_p; part++, p++)
+ for (part = 1; part < max_p; part++, p++)
                if (p->nr_sects)
                        devfs_register_partition(dev, part);
 #endif

Which I applied, and compiled and magically, I can now boot 2.5.34!!!
He also explained me that it could be because the fs is on the last
partition (which is my case)...

Hope it could be of some helps for other too ;-)
