I have just installed the 2.4.1-2 version of the kernel, but my system
will no longer reboot. It hangs at the point when it says "Loading
Linux".
If i try to boot off a floppy created with the 2.4.0-12 kernel in
place, the system boots, but I get error messages saying reiserfs is
not supported, supermount is also not supported, along with an
abundance of "file not found" messages due to the reiserfs
filesystems. Then, when I get a prompt, I am unable to log on. I
enter the user, but am not asked for a password and am told "login
incorrect."
I have also tried booting from a floppy created under the 2.2.17-21
kernel but get the same message. All my filesystems are reiserfs
except for root.
Is my system recoverable, and if so, how?
