(Reposting without attachment in case it got filtered out - apologies) Hi guys, I have tried to compile the source for 2.6.28 and not changed any code. I took just the defaults for the config (I suspect the config is the issue...) and did:
make make modules make modules_install mkinitrd -o initrdsteo.img-2.6.28 2.6.28 and then added it to grub like so: title Steos Dev Kernel root (hd0,1) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28 root=UUID=fa619a11-1e18-4044-aada-f953cb31d195 ro single initrd /boot/initrdsteo.img-2.6.28 When I boot up, I am getting a panic: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCSI Subsystem initialized Driver 'sd' needs updating - please use bus_type methods Driver 'sr' needs updating - please use bus_type methods umount: devfs: not mounted /scripts/ext-3-add-journal.sh: 27: arithmetic expression: Expecting EOF: "0x" mount: unknown filesystem type 'devfs' /sbin/init: 426: arithmetic expression: Expecting EOF: "0x" Kernel Panic - not syncing: Attempting to kill init! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aside: Is it possible to get this output on dmesg after subsequently booting up a working kernel? Or is it gone by this stage? Or, as it seems it has no access to a filesystem, it wouldn't even be able to save them anywhere anyway? Thanks, Ste
