Hi folks,

I can boot fine off a 1366 kernel with no problems, but I get the 
following errors from 1369

RAMDISK: compressed image found at block 0
RAMDISK: ran out of compressed data
invalid compressed format (err=1)

I'm booting into a reiser root partition...

md5sums for the installed files...

and the archive is 5196 blocks in size.


Any ideas what could be causing the problems?
