slack 2.4.33 kernel compile
hi guys, here is the situation. . . i had (i think) a successful kernel compile. . BUT there is a problem:
here is the details : in my newly edited LILO : i added: # Linux bootable partition config starts image = /boot/2.4.33.3/vmlinuz-2.4.33 root = /dev/hdc5 -WHRE THIS IS MY ROOT PARTITION label = Slackware-2.4 read-only # Linux bootable partition config ends run /sbin/lilo -v -AS ROOT (no errors whre seen) here is the contents of my /boot/2.4.33.3 dir /boot/2.4.33.3$ ls System.map vmlinuz-2.4.33 and here is the error after choosing Slackware-2.4 - as the newly compiled kernel ************************************************** **** Attempt to root device as read write failed If you are using USMSDOS you must mount the root partition as read write loadlin vmlinuz root =/dev/hda1 rw (where /hda1 is the root device) - in my case its /hdc5 Normal boot disk can be made to mount a system read write with the rdev command: rdev -R /dev/fd0 you can also get into your system by using a boot disk LILO = mount root = /dev/hda1 ************************************************** ****** any suggestions? |
Post the full lilo.conf.
I'm guessing that you old kernel is still in /boot. What filesystems are /boot, /boot/2.4.33.3 and /root mounted on. What's the output from df. Cheers. |
