I finally found a way around that I am posting to the list in case it

initrd using the --with ata_generic --with libata options.
Can you specify these options in the kickstart file while using
revisor? How is the syntax?
Not that I am aware of. The way I do it is to mount the image after it
is done, use
mount --bind /sys <path_to_image_mount>/sys
to mount sys, update the fstab to point to my label:
LABEL=mylabel / ext3 defaults 0 0
then run chroot into the mounted image
chroot <path_to_image_mount>
and then run mkinitrd
/sbin/mkinitrd --with libata --with ata_generic
/boot/initrd-<kernel_ver>.img <kernel_ver>
I am not sure if there is a better way.

Thanks!

I am using the latest image-creator tool from the git repo to create an
custom fedora image based on fedora 8.
When I try to boot either from the physical image or in qemu, I get
the
following error:
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
and then eventually switchroot fails and the system hangs. I have
tried
the original kernel and the latest released kernel. I have rebuilt
initrd based on hda1, sda1, etc. in the /etc/fstab file and get the same
problem. I have tried grub, extlinux, and even booting directly in
qemu. No matter what I get this error.
The only thing I have gotten to work is to download a vanilla kernel
and
build and install it manually. It seems as though the fedora kernel
does not find the ide drives, although I cannot verify this because the
text scrolls too quickly for me to see.
Anyone know what the problem is? I am not sure if this is the best
list
to ask this question, so perhaps even suggesting a more appropriate list
would be helpful too.
Thanks,
