From looking at the fstab, it looks like you are using the decerpated
ATA setup. You should not be doing this. 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. Also, modify your fstab from
/dev/hda{1,5} to /dev/sda{1,5}.
Also, can you please give me an ls of /dev from your host system, and
what host system is it?

In fstab *and* grub.cfg, change hda to sda. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

You're right, he should change /dev/hda1 to /dev/sda1, but the fstab is
irrelevant. 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.

That was true for grub legacy but the grub we use counts partitions from
1 so (hd0,1) is the correct way of saying /dev/hda1 to grub
Oh. :{ I stand corrected. Sometimes you *can* teach an old dog new tricks. :)

Anyway, I think you vi the grub.cfg file and replace root=/dev/hda1 with root=/dev/sda1. Then try to boot up your LFS system. If your kernel panics upon boot, complaing about not being able to mount the root file system, then you have a kernel configuration problem. -- William Immendorf The ultimate in free computing.
