Hi group, My hand-made kernel was giving me grief(see bug #132141) so I did #emerge genkernel, #zcat /proc/config.gz > /usr/share/genkernel/x86/kernel-config-2.6, #genkernel all, and rebooted.
Here's the grub session(not using grub-conf): grub> root (hd0,1): ext2fs, partition type 0x83 grub> kernel /kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.16-gentoo-r3 [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1c00, size=0x101fb0] grub> boot ... VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown block (8,7) Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel panic-not syncing...unknown block (8,7) It doesn't matter if I specify the root partition in the 'kernel' line or not. The original kernel *will* boot using the same grub commands, just won't load any modules, among other things. -Maxim __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
