Maybe you didn't select the initrd in kernelloader or you specified a wrong "root=..." parameter.

i think you are right about the "root=" parameter so what root parameter should i use?

i have a few questions. 1. what is the recomended kernel paremeter 2. what modules need to be enabled.

... I think, the size may be redundant. Modules to enable would depend on whether you have a fat or slim ps2. If you have the slim I'll post the kl config that works for me.
