Hi everyone, hoping someone can help me here
I followed the instructions on http://www.fs.tum.de/~bunk/kernel-24.html for upgrading 2.2r3 to the 2.4 kernel. I thought i'd followed the isntructions to the letter, but when i rebooted all seemed well until halfway through the reboot when it stopped. the last "good" line in the bootup says Linux IP multicast router 0.06 plus PIM-SM then we get to the bad stuff request_module[block-major-8: Root fs not mounted VFS: Cannot open root device "801" or 08:01 Please append a correct "root=" bot option Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:01 and that's where it ends. any help to either a) get the system as-is to boot or b) re-install and get 2.4 pon the "right way" would be appreciated. I'd be very grateful for any help John
