But I can't seem to boot it. It complains about not having an NFS mount then asks for a root floppy. If I hit a key, the kernel panics. I haven't figured out how to capture the output.
I've googled around and am not finding anything. I've checked my Grub settings and they seem fine. I've double-checked the kernel config and it includes support for reiserfs, which is what the LFS 5 is on. Any ideas on what to do next?
