This is the first time ever that I ended up with an unbootable kernel after a new install, and I have no idea where to start. This is a fresh install of Gentoo 2007.0 minimal CD stage 3, using the x86 quick install guide.
Here's the error I get at boot while the kernel is loading its device drivers: VFS: Cannot open root device "sda3" or unknown-block(0,0) Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) I am using grub, with conf file just like in the install guide (I happened to use the same file system set-up): title=Gentoo root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/kernel root=/dev/sda3 I have a SATA drive in my system, which seems to get loaded fine by the kernel, at least from what I can tell - there seem to be no error messages to that effect. I suppose I could do a genkernel, but I'd like to be able to tell where I went wrong with my config... Where do I start looking for this? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
