This is the exact error:
Root-FFS: No NFS server available, giving up VFS: Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy VFS: Cannot open root device "sda4" or unknown-block(2,0) Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions 0300 156290904 hda driver: ide-disk 0301 102398278 hda1 0302 29294527 hda2 0303 979965 hda3 0304 23615550 hda4 1600 4194302 hdc driver: ide-cdrom Kernel panic -not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(2,0) For the sake of completeness, my grub entry is: title LFS 6.3 root (hd0,3) kernel /boot/lfskernel-2.6.22.5 root=/dev/sda4 I just double checked with gparted to make sure lfs is indeed on sda4, and it is. I also checked my kernel configuration and I did indeed rebuild it with the proper modules. I also double checked the timestamps of the bzImage in the source tree and the kernel image in /boot to make sure that I didn't forget to copy it after it was compiled. I'm clearly overlooking something, but I'm not sure what. -David -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
