Hellou people

I love and put every new version of Slitaz on my MultiBot USBflash.

Slitaz version 3. working normaly.

This is from my menu.lst :

title Slitaz 3.0
kernel /Slitaz/boot/bzImage root=/dev/ram0 vga=791
initrd /Slitaz/boot/rootfs.gz

ALL IS OK
---------------------------------------------------------

Slitaz 4.0 dont boot

Maybe reason is new:
ROOTFS1.GZ
ROOTFS2.GZ
ROOTFS3.GZ
ROOTFS4.GZ

Please help.
----------------------------------------------------------
P.S.
SliTaz 3.0 have only one rootfs.gz

What is god combination to put in my menu.lst for SliTaz 4.0 ?

If your grub supports multi initrd (the grub of SliTaz 4.0 does), try :

title Slitaz 4.0
kernel /Slitaz/boot/bzImage root=/dev/ram0 vga=791
initrd /Slitaz/boot/rootfs4.gz /Slitaz/boot/rootfs3.gz /Slitaz/boot/rootfs2.gz /Slitaz/boot/rootfs1.gz

if your grub does not support multi initrd, do first
# cat /Slitaz/boot/rootfs4.gz /Slitaz/boot/rootfs3.gz /Slitaz/boot/rootfs2.gz /Slitaz/boot/rootfs1.gz > /Slitaz/boot/rootfs.gz

And try:
title Slitaz 4.0
kernel /Slitaz/boot/bzImage root=/dev/ram0 vga=791
initrd /Slitaz/boot/rootfs.gz

How its worked in my case: usb kingston data traveler 109 8GB formated NTFS file system
slitaz-4.0.iso file in root directory on usb drive
menu.lst looks like:

title stilaz 4.0
map /slitaz-4.0.iso (0xff) || map --mem /slitaz-4.0.iso (0xff)
map --hook root (0xff)
chainloader (0xff)

lets say if you copy slitaz-4.0.iso file to boot directory on usb drive:

title stilaz 4.0
map /boot/slitaz-4.0.iso (0xff) || map --mem /boot/slitaz-4.0.iso (0xff)
map --hook root (0xff)
chainloader (0xff)
