Re: Boot kernal Panic :(
Methinks you need to change /etc/fstab. I CANNOT believe i forgot that :/ Thanks for pointing it out. i swear i must have edited the contents of fstab 3million times, and not noticed that it was set to the wron partition. anyhow, thanks :D System is up and running, and im off to get confused by BLFS!

Disable the decperated ATA support and enable SATA and PATA support option, and select whatever hard drive controller you're using (lspci is your friend here), and select Generic ATA Support.

A broken fstab will cause the bootscripts to have problems, but the system will still boot as long as the kernel has been told to mount the correct partition (/dev/sda1) in grub.cfg.
