LinuxQuestions.org - Suse on Vmware booting problem

I tried to load Suse 9.0 Pro Ghost image onto Vmware workstation & having problem when booting.
The error message:

Code:

kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-3, errno = 2

VFS : Cannot open root device "" or 03:0a

Please append a correct "root=" boot option

Try booting with pci=noacpi, acpi=ht, or acpi=off on the command line.

If one helps, please report the following lines:

DMI: BIOS: Phoenix Technologies LTD, 6.00, 02/11/2005

DMI: System: Vmware, Inc, Vmware Virtual Platform, None

DMI: Board: Intel Corporation, 440BX Desktop Reference Platform, None

Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:0a

The original PC is using SATA hd & on Vmware is using scsi. I've change fstab entry from

Code:

/dev/hdc2 / ext2 defaults 1 1

Code:

/dev/sda2 / ext2 defaults 1 1

the original /boot/grub/menu.lst

Code:

title Suse

        kernel (hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hdc2 vga=0x31a splash=silent desktop hda=ide-scsi hdalun=0 showopts

& changed to

Code:

title Suse

        kernel (hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda2

also, changed /boot/grub/device.map from

Code:

(hd0) /dev/hdc

Code:

(hd0) /dev/sda

After failed to boot, I tried to boot manually using grub command line

Code:

grub> root(hd0,1)

 Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x8



grub> kernel (hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda2

 [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1400, size=0x13870c]



grub> boot

but still failed to boot.

Any idea?
