VFS: Can't open root device 03:01
Kernel Panic: VFS unable to mount root fs on 03:01
strange
maybe you compiled the root fs as a module (which is not to be
done), but how would you boot?...
ah there's the answer:
I installed the 2.0.34 kernel source package. I think I'm following the
instructions in /usr/doc/kernel-source-2.0.34/README. I do:
make mrproper
make menuconfig
make dep
make clean
make zImage
make modules
make modules_install
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.0.34
lilo
dear mister, that's the orginal doc from de kernel source, not the
Debianized one.
well, with Debian there are some more files that are necessary for the
kernel to work
(e.g. : /boot/SystemMap)
you have to use the make-kernel package tools, or whatever is its name :
# cd /usr/src/linux
# make-kpkg clean
# make xconfig /* sorry I like it :) */
# make-kpkg -r custom.1.0 binary
which buils all you need in /usr/src
then
# cd /usr/src
# dpkg -BRGiE kernel-image 2.0.34_custom.1.0.deb
but before :
$ man make-kpkg
$ cd /usr/doc/kernel-(uh what's its name? look for it!)
and rtfd
:)
you're welcome
