Subject: Unable to boot 2.6.0-test1-mm2 (mm1 is OK) on RH 9.0.93 (Severn)
Date: 22 Jul 2003 09:25:18 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1058887517.1668.16.camel@spc9.esa.lanl.gov> (raw)
I get this error when trying to boot 2.6.0-test1-mm2 using the new Red
Hat beta (Severn). 2.6.0-test2-mm2 runs successfully on a couple of
other test boxes of mine.
VFS: Cannot open root device "hda1" or unknown-block(0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
Linux-2.6.0-test1-mm2 had this additional akpm patch applied:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=105868155010855&w=2
Here is my /etc/lilo.conf. All the other kernels boot and run fine.
I removed the devlabel stuff from virgin Severn (fstab and rc.sysinit).

The .config for -mm2 is the same as for -mm1, just run through
make oldconfig. That -mm1 .config came from the working 2.6-bk .config,
also run through make oldconfig too.
