I installed a new SCSI hard disk in my system and installed SuSe 7.2 on it. I am trying to use GRUB to boot this system but it is not working and I can not understand why not.
I have a SCSI disk - id 0 - sda - already in the box that has Linux on it. I have installed LILO in the MBR and this boots fine. My new SCSI disk is id 1 - sdb - and this is the partitioning: /dev/sdb1 - /boot (ext2fs) /dev/sdb2 - swap /dev/sdb3 - / (ext2fs) /dev/sdb4 - LVM partition (/opt /home /var) I try to boot it with the following commands: root (hd1,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sdb3 boot When I boot Linux, the error I get is: request_module[block major-8]: root fs not mounted VFS: Cannot open root device "sbd3" or 08:13 Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:13 I am absolutely sure that my root partition is /dev/sdb3. What is going on and how can I get it to work? I am using grub 0.90, by the way.
