Hey,
I kinda have a problem,
I have compiled now 4 kernel's and the first two kernel's got stuck on
this message at boot.
<snip>
VFS: Cannot open root device "hda1" or unknown-block(3,1)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
<end snip>
Sounds like you're making a kernel with no initrd and all the filesystems are modules. initrd is a pain in the butt, just compile the filesystems you need at boot time right into the kernel. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux)

Hey,
Forgot to say that i am using make-kpkg then i am transfering it to my laptop to then installing the kernel.
I just tried another 3times and this time i made sure i made the filesystems in the kernel and not modules, but i still got the same error.
Is there a way i can use make-kpkg to make a initrd as the 2.6.7 (original kernel) has one but the one i keep trying to make is missing, is that the problem ? how would i make one and transfer it to the laptop...
Thanks. Grant.
