This happened on a fresh CDROM install of a brand new server with no OS installed. Potato 2.2r5.
I fixed it by booting up with a win98 boot disk with CDROM support, and then running D:\install\boot.bat from the CDROM. That worked perfectly. I'm not really sure what the original CD install was trying to mount, but can't you figure it out from those numbers? Isn't it hex or something? I think I saw something like that searching google. -Mike -----Original Message----- From: Corey Halpin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2002 4:52 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Kernel panic on install, Dell Poweredge 350 > The last message I get is: "Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root > fs on 01:00" that's a pretty common error if you've borked your kernel install. It means that either you don't have drivers for your hard disk built in the kernel, or that you don't have drivers for your filesystem built into the kernel. Drivers for hard drive, and root fs _must_ be in the kernel, as it's kind of hard to load them from an unmounted partition that you don't know how to talk to. crh -- Corey R.
