Ok, got it done.
I started again from the start of the guide. I was already running 2.6
so I loaded up the .config from that added NTFS, removed some odds and
sods and compiled. I still got the initrd error but carried on as
before. This time I replaced the system.map link with the one specified.
(kept a backup copy though).
Changed my grub back to reading:
title Fedora Core (2.6.4Custom)
root (hd0,4)
kernel /boot/bzImage-2.6.4Custom ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb acpi=on
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.4Custom.img
and yes i did keep the other entries.
and the result of all this effort.
IT WORKS!! woohoo. I have NTFS support. As well as a slightly more
compact and more modern kernel.
One Question?
I used the 'bzImage' file as per the guide. But all the other boot files
are 'vmlinuz'. This existed in my compile directory, should I have used
that instead?
Thanks for all the help guys
