Here is error messages:
It detects disks ok: (all ide devices)
hda ... harddrive (windows)
hdb ... dvd
hdc ... harddrive (linux)
hdd ... cdrw
Partition check
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0
/dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0
ext3: No journal on filesystem on ide1 (22,6)
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev2/root, or too
many mounted filesystems
warning cant open /etc/mtab no such file or directory
pivot_root; no such file or directory
/sbin/init cannot open dev/console: no such file
kernel panic: attempted to kill init
It boots ok with 2.4.19 homebuilt, kernel-image-2.4.18-686 from
stable,and 2.2.20 from stable, that follows from install.
Im also including my lilo.conf.
Hope you can help
Thanks
Kenneth
