Hello, I have several new portables to install. On an HP9000z I reformatted the hard drive and used liveCD 2007.0. I performed the most basic installation (no X, KDE ....)
The installation ran to completion. The installation process declared itself successful. Upon reboot I get this error message: Block Device /dev/sda4 is not a valid root device... The root block device is unspecified or not detected. Please specify a device to boot, or "shell" for a shell... The partitioning is quite simple sda1 ntfs vista(soon) sda2 reiserfs /boot sda3 swap ada4 reiserfs / Trying sda2 does not work either. Is the best method to rescue this install to use the minimal cd and fdisk and mark the sda2 partition as a boot. I'm about ready to use the Handbook and perform the install the old way... Any suggestions? James -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
