Scyld and root directory

Jag:

Thanks for the message. I have tried your suggestion but the append line seems
to give the kernel problems I get a kernel panic about not being able to 
open an initial console. It doen't seem to matter where I put the append
command. I have been successful putting the default boot image on to a node and
rebooting. Only when the append line is included does the kernal puke.

I have another general question. I have altered the standard partition 
table to have a large swap file local on the slave node. Also, I have a large
disk area that has no label. Hwoever, when I issue a remote df -k I only
see the nfs-mounted file system from the mater node and a ramdisk. Is this 
normal?  Where are the other partitions? If I use bpsh 0 fdisk, I can read 
the partition table well enough.
