Subject: Re: [ilugd] Booting into a compiled kernel


  2. you probably specified to build the root filesystem [generally its
  ext2) (or even ext3 if you are like me...) into "modules". That doesnt
  work, since atleast the root filesystem needs to be inbuilt into the
  kernel(i.e. say "y" rather than "m" for the root filesystem that you
  use). basically the idea is that the modules are "read" from the root
  filesystem, so if you read even the root filesystem modules from the
  root, it becomes more of a chicken vs egg problem, thereby causing the
  error...


Thanks, that was quick, I will try out the possibilities and ping
back the list tomorrow, as its my home machine. Well, I don't
think I specified ext3 as a module, but I will make sure, I did
that.

Regards,

Venky
