Thanks for the tip, i used the same hard disk on another system , booted with the same CD ( cent OS ) .... and it didn't give me any issue !! .... it seem to be a RAM issue on my previous system !! i guess !! cause the complete error was RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0 crc error VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown-block (253,0) plese append a correct "root=" boot optiion kernel panic -not syncing: VFS : Unable to mount root fs on unknow-block (253,0) ........ any tips on how to check a defective RAM -- Regards Agnello Dsouza -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
