If this post no longer qualifies as a "bug report", feel free to redirect it.
(But as you seem knowledgeable, and kind enough to reply, I feel inclined to
bug you until I can get my system working:-)
Ok, I built a new initrd, after adding some modules to /etc/mkinitrd/modules.
I started by just adding scsi_mod and sd_mod, but got the same error (kernel
panic) when I tried to boot; I then added just about everything from `lsmod`
--except some that I was sure weren't needed, like soundcore-- and built the
initrd again. Except for a few additional lines ("USB Mass Storage support
registered"), I got the exact same error again! How do I boot off this scsi
drive?
Thanks!
===== end of messages when trying to boot =====
pivot_root: No such file or directory
/sbin/init: 432: cannot open dev/console: No such file
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
PS:
- I did google around, so I'm trying not to be lazy
- /dev/console does exist on the initrd and the drive
- /sbin/init also exists on both the initrd and the drive
- I did specify the correct kernel version when building the initrd
