Howdy,

This morning I managed to get the systemd LFS system, Version
7.6-systemd-rc2 to boot. After spitting out a lot of stuff, it stopped
with this:

[  1.315957] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount
root fs on unknown-block(8,2)

The keyboard does not respond and the mouse is not turned on.

Any suggestions as to what I should do next?

Please note that I did all of the LFS book instructions in one long
session of compiling, so I don't think there are any issues of
incompatible software versions due to changes in the Pre-release version.

Ok, please ignore the above. I managed to find the problem: /boot/grub/grub.cfg contained the wrong information for the menuentry line:

I had retained "root=/dev/sda2" whereas I should have changed it to "root=/dev/sdb3" to match my system. Duh.

Now systemd boots ok, but the mouse is not completely working -- another email for that.

Alan
