It can be used for re-mounting it read-write, but not for the initial mount. The only other likely possibility I can think of is that you are somehow booting the wrong kernel. Try to take a look at the first line of kernel output, it will include the date and time that you compiled the kernel. Make sure it looks sane. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] drive found but still panics
Hello everybody, For those of you who have been following my thread re: NV_SATA, thanks to Richard Fish, the drive is now seen but the kernel still panics after the last coherent message Using IPI shortcut mode. Seems it still can't mount the root fs although grub kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda6 [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x120,size=0x1463b31] And root on /dev/sda6(reiserfs) is eminently mountable from the LiveCD or another gentoo install. I can chroot to it, read/write, emerge files etc. Any help apprecitated -mw __ Yahoo! DSL Something to write home about. Just $16.99/mo. or less. dsl.yahoo.com -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Seems it still can't mount the root fs although From a previous posting of your kernel config, I see that you have: CONFIG_REISERFS_CHECK=y CONFIG_REISERFS_PROC_INFO=y The above are normally disabled, so I would try taking them out and see if you have better luck. Other than that, double (and triple) check that it really is a reiserfs filesystem, because it should be working. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
