> This is the short story:
> This has worked before. I've done it 9568705738563 times in real machines

> I got a computer and rsync(ed) everything to a filesystem in a VBox machine.
> GRUB(ed) it without problems as I've done countless times.
> Partitions match, and fstab matches, but we'll never get there anyway...

> The VBox machine, boots, GRUBs, and hangs on:

> Uncompressing Linux... OK, booting the kernel.

> My first take is an initrd problem, but why?

> More details:
> I created the filesystem with mke2fs in Kubuntu 8.10, while the machine I am
> copying from is a 2.6.9 kernel Red Hat (I'm no familiar with Red Hat) and
> E2fsprogs is 7 minors older (.35 to .41)
> Any ideas?
