Dear Ali,

Thank you very much for the response.
I haven't modified the simulator, but only configured some path for FS
configuration.
I'm using the stable version of gem5 up to date, and FFT in splash2
benchmark suit to test.
All the configuration under L2 cache configuration is under the direction
of gem5.org site.

I have diffed the terminal output under m5term, and there is slight
difference as followed. I'm not sure whether it help to diagnose.

terminal under l2 cache:
-------------------------------
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 208k freed

init started:  BusyBox v1.1.0 (2007.03.04-01:07+0000) multi-call binary
mounting filesystems...
EXT2-fs warning: mounting unchecked fs, running e2fsck is recommended
loading script...

terminal under l3 cache:
-------------------------------
List of all partitions:
0300    1433376 hda driver: ide-disk
  0301    1433344 hda1
0340    1433376 hdb driver: ide-disk
  0341    1433344 hdb1
No filesystem could mount root, tried:  ext3 ext2
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(3,1)
