Hi, I have experienced the same problem. If you have a SATA harddrive you should specify root=/dev/sda1(or whatever device number and partition you boot from)
On kenrel update the installer overwrites the values for (root=....) nad puts there /dev/hd... Hope this helps Regards, Vasil On 3/18/07, Rick Pasotto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I upgraded my system today (etch) and when I rebooted this new kernel complained about running out of compressed data and that I needed to specify a correct root= parameter. Booting with kernel 2.6.17-4-k7 still works fine and it uses the same root= parameter. My hard drive is SATA. Is this a known problem with this kernel? -- "And if you give us any more trouble, I shall visit you in the small hours and put a bat up your nightdress." -- Basil Fawlty Rick Pasotto [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.niof.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
