Hi,
I'm having trouble booting kernel-2.4.0-0.10mdk on my x86 system. The
system only contains a SCSI drive, kernel-2.2.17-29mdk boots fine, but
the 2.4 kernel spits out:
failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-8 errno=2
VFS: Cannot open root device "805" or 08:05
Please append a correct "root=" boot option.
My hunch is that it's in the modules.conf file & the initrd image.
alias block-major-11 scsi_hostadapter
alias char-major-81 bttv
alias eth0 3c59x
alias net-pf-4 ipx
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias scsi_hostadapter aic7xxx
alias scsi_hostadpater1 ncr53c8xx
alias scsi_hostadapter2 usb-storage
alias usb-interface usb-uhci
post-install supermount modprobe scsi_hostadapter ; modprobe
scsi_hostadapter1 ; modprobe scsi_hostadapter2
post-install usb-storage modprobe usbkbd; modprobe keybdev
pre-install pcmcia_core /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start
pre-install plip modprobe parport_pc ; echo 7 > /proc/parport/0/irq
alias sound-slot-0 es1370
I changed to block-major-11 into block-major-8 and rebuilt the initrd,
but it didn't help.
Any idea's?
TIA
Stefan
