Hi all
I have succesfully completed all the steps in the LFS 6.3 ebook except the last one...
i have added the following lines in the host system boot loader
Code:
#
# This entry is for LFS
#
title LFS 6.3
root (hd0,5)
kernel /boot/lfskernel-2.6.22.5 root=/dev/hda6
when i select this option in the grub menu after booting .. iam getting the following error
Code:
"Booting LFS"
root(hd0,5)
FIlesystem type Unknown,Partition type 0xb
Kernel /boot/lfskernel_2.6.22.5
root=/dev/hda6
Error 17 :
Cannot mount selected partition
Press any key to continue
more over my fdisk and df commands are showing ambigous results...
Code:
fdisk shows
----------
/dev/hda6 2701 3097 3188871 b W95 FAT32
----------
df shows
----------
/dev/hda6 ext3 3.0G 1.5G 1.4G 53% /mnt/disk[hda6]
----------
even in fstab its showing as ext3
---------
/dev/hda6 /mnt/disk[hda6] ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0
---------
I didnt install the grub boot loader seperately as mentioned in the ebook.instead i used the host system grub.conf to add the new LFS entry..i dont think this is the problem...Am i correct..??
Please help me to get rid of this error....
THANKS IN ADVANCE
