running first? Try just
title Xandros Linux 3.0 (starter)
root (hd0,8)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-x1 root=/dev/hda9 ro acpi=off
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-x1.gz
The boot process runs longer now, but stops in much the same way:
Boot error message:
sh : error opening /proc/software_suspend/do_resume : No such file or
directory
[still.]
VFS : Cannot open root device "hda9" or unknown-block (0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
[then]
Kernel panic - not syncing : VFS : unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block (0,0)
Back at install-time (June), I gave up after these..
GRUB entry lines I have tried before:
#root (hd0,8)/dev/hda9
#systemmap /boot/System.map-2.6.9-x1
#kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-x1 root=(hd0,8) ro # rw single
#kernel (hd0,8)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-x1 root=(hd0,8)/dev/hda9
Advisor (just left) concluded 'init.rd is not loading'.
I have assumed map (Lilo) & systemmap (Grub) are not quite the same
reference, and so have left that out this last run (pending
clarification).
Thanks for any help,
Rik
