Hi-ho folks, long time no type...
My boggle for the day is this:
I've got a clean installed Sarge box, which I want to use a PCI ATA
adapter in to mount a large software raid.. The chipset is supported in
2.6.17.11 (and probably earlier versions, its an IT8211 chipset).
So I downloaded 2.6.17.11 source from kernel.org, used /make-kpkg to
make a custom kernel and although it now supports the chipset in the
card, I can't get it to boot for a devfs error...
The last couple of lines on screen are:
/umount: devfs: not mounted
pivot_root: No such a file or directory
/sbin/init: 432: cannot open dev/console:No such a file
Kernel panic - not syncing : Attemped to kill init!
Anyone got a apt-source for a pre-built 2.6.17, or a quick fix for this
one? I googled it and found some other folks having the same problem,
but no clear solution...
Cheers, Chris Hellyar.
