I have downloaded the new kernel 2.6.10. Compiled it, added a new section to lilo, and when I try to boot it I get
Code:
VFS: Cannot open root device "301" or unknown-block(3,1)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option.
Kernel panic - not snycing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(3,1)
I've googled this many times, no solutions so far.
Here is my lilo.conf :
Code:
# LILO configuration file
# generated by 'liloconfig'
#
# Start LILO global section
boot = /dev/hda
message = /boot/boot_message.txt
prompt
timeout = 1200

And my fdisk -l

I am using a PCI to IDE controller card to control the extra 80gb /dev/hdg
Anyone have a good solution for this?
and my /dev/hda1 is my root partition.........
And I tried to compile it this way also :
Thanks.
Code:
make clean && make mrproper
make menuconfig
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
Thanks!
