Hi,
I can't get Traktopel (beta 1 or 2) to boot.
I have an ASUS Board with an Adaptec 7890 SCSI controller. I
got a Western Digital SCSI and a Maxtor IDE/UDMA harddisk.
I got Windows 98 on one part of the Maxtor disk and Linux on
the Western Digital (WD9100) harddisk and a part on the
Maxtor disk.
My fstab can be found below to get a better idea how my
drives are configured.
To boot till now (Mandrake 7.2) I had to add following to
lilo.conf:
disk = /dev/sda bios = 0x80
disk = /dev/hda bios = 0x81
to change the boot order of both disks (so LILO boots from
the SCSI drive). My lilo.conf is below as well.
But right now, with Traktopel, beta 1 and 2, it doesn't work
anymore. First I wasn't able to boot at all. Then, with the
rescue image on the Traktopel CD, I was able to add the
previous described options to lilo and run lilo to adopt
this changes. Now I can boot at least Windows. But Linux
doesn't work, neither by booting from the floppy drive (the
Mandrake boot floppy disk doesn't work at all), nor from the
harddisk, sending following error message:
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem)
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:07
Anyone out there knowing how to solve this problem?
