Jornada 680 asks for "root device"



I'm trying to install hpcsh on my Jornada 680e. This is the Dutch Railway version available cheaply right now. It has a qwerty keyboard with accented characters superimposed on the keys, accessible using the alt-gr key.

I followed the instructions i Valeriy Ushakov's "NetBSD and handheld platforms" document, and creaded a FAT and an FFS partition on a 512MB CF card using an i386 laptop booted using a NetBSD live CD. Everything seemed to work fine. I extracted the kernel tarfile into the FAT partition, and the rest of the binary sets into the FFS partition.

When I boot using hpcboot, the booting process starts, until I get

wskbd2 at hpckbd0: console keyboard, using wsdisplay0
boot device: <unknown>
root device:

It doesn't seem to find my wd0a root setup. If I try typing in wd0a OR wd0 or wd1a or anything else, it just responds with

use one of: ddb halt reboot
root device:

I had assumed the kernel binary would automatically look for wd0. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Do I have to recompile the kernel to recognize my CF card. Did anyone else here have this problem trying to install 2.0 on a Jornada?

Thanks,
Mike
