Hi,
This is my first post and first install and I'm having a few problems.
I've gone through all the stages of the install and got the setup of grub.
When rebooting. Grub pops up with the normal menu. I hit enter and the kernel 
says "Uncompressing Kernel...." and all the normal stuff. Then after 
detecting some stuff. It says:

        ds: no socket drivers loaded
        Kernel Panic: VFA: Unable to mount root fs on 03:03

Then it hangs.

I followed the instructions to setup grub using:

        root (hd0,0)
        setup (hd0)

My partitions are:

        /dev/hda1       /boot   ext3
        /dev/hda2       /swap
        /dev/hda3       /               reiserfs

grub.conf was also copied from the install instructions 

        default 0
        timeout 30
        splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz

        title=Gentoo
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel (hd0,0)/boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda3

I've tried the paths with /boot/ and without and it doesn't make a difference.
I have added reiserfs and ext3 to the kernel options.

I checked the forum but none of the suggested fixes matched my problem 
exactly. Does any one have any idea what I can do next?

Thanks in advance for any help,
Jordan
