It was nearing 1.00 AM and I was a bit tired and emotional with things going wrong.
Apologies,

Adam, Did you mean to post this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of to us at [EMAIL PROTECTED]? GNU coreutils are the basic file, shell and text manipulation utilities of the GNU operating system. You don't seem to be having a GNU coreutils problem.I suggest looking there first. http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/ Bob Adam Felix Bogacki wrote:Hi, at the risk of being tiresome (to myself if no one else) ... I apt-graded to kernel-image-2.6.5-1-686 successfully, but after the next dist-upgrade - which 'upgraded' the kernel-image - I found reboot gave me kernel panic "VFS: Cannot open root device "hdb5" or unknown-block (0,0) Please append a correct "root= " boot option Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block (0,0)" Googling around suggested that 2.6.5 has changed the parsing of the "root= " boot argument. I rebooted with the rescue disk (2.4.8-bf2.4), which is missing its modules dependency file (modules.dep), but now find "Tux:~# /usr/sbin/mkinitrd -m /boot/initrd.img-2.6.5-1-686 -o 2.6.5custom /usr/sbin/mkinitrd line 1: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.5-1-686: Permission denied" Am I missing something here - or a bug ?
