hey guys!
I didn't installed GRUB in the chapter 8 and configured my already
installed GRUB with writing the following text in the /boot/grub.cfg
set default=0
set timeout=5
insmod ext2
set root=(hd0,msdos4) #i tried it with set root=(hd0,4) too
menuentry "GNU/Linux, Linux 3.5.2-lfs-7.2" {
linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.5.2-lfs-7.2
root=UUID=4f9f6834-c55b-492e-a70c-4e3bca952f5b ro
}
I can't use the /dev/sdxy partition names because i have two hard drives
(IDE and SATA) and the names are after rebooting randomly mixed. So i
can't be sure which is the right /dev/sdxy file.
I try to boot my new lfs system and it don't work instead i get this
message (a little bit more but i think this is the important part):
VFS: Cannot open root device "UUID=4f9f6834-c55b-492e-a70c-4e3bca952f5b"
or unknown-block(0,0): error -6
Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available
partitions:
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(0,0)
I don't use an extra /boot partition so i have two /boot folders one on
my Ubuntu(containing GRUB and the Ubuntu kernel) partition and one on my
LFS (containing the LFS kernel) partition can this work?
Can i even use UUIDs for lfs?
Did i anything else wrong?
my host system: Ubuntu 12.10
my lfs version 7.2
