Per Michael's suggestion I changed kernel /boot/lfskernel-2.6.22.5 root=(hd0,2) ro TO /boot/lfskernel-2.6.22.5 root=/dev/sda3 Result: same error
I then tried kernel /boot/lfskernel-2.6.22.5 root=/dev/hda3 Result: same error So in grub at boot I used tab completion for kernel /boot/ and it listed a lot of different kernels (?) but none were those listed in my LFS boot directory. So I chose vmlinuz-2.6.24-19-generic and got the same error. Apparently there is something wrong with the kernel compilition itself, and re-doing it hasn't fixed the problem. Perhaps I should start over. I don't know how else to try to fix this problem. Thanks, Brittany On Thu, 16 Oct 2008 14:39:01 +0200 Michael Brandstetter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Am Donnerstag, 16.
