"Can't find root filesystem / error mounting /dev/root" when booting to new kernel
I am trying to upgrade my kernel from 2.6.18-274 to 2.6.39 for some wireless card drivers.
When I boot into the new kernel I get the "Can't find root filesystem / error mounting /dev/root" googling led me to this page http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common..._.2Fdev.2Froot From what I am reading seems to be an issue with a driver for my SATA controller or HD, but I can't find what option I need to add to the kernel. Doing a diff from the old initrd to the new one gives me the following: Code:
root-> diff /tmp/kafter /tmp/kbefore I have the same SATA and IDE options configured for both kernels so not sure what else to look for, any help is appreciated. Additionally here is the HW info: Code:
00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FW (ICH6/ICH6W) SATA Controller (rev 03) (prog-if 8f [Master SecP SecO PriP PriO]) |
I fixed it with the help of this link http://serverfault.com/questions/108...ystem-dev-root
Needed this option: CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2=Y |
