Hi,One thing I am confused that the LFS kernel (/boot/vmlinuz-4.18.5-lfs-8.3
from my partition(one partition for both /boot and /) was loaded and run, which
indicated that the system can access my partition /dev/sda3 which was going to
be mounted as root, right? why the kernel will give the error messages that
unable to mount root fs?ThanksJimmy

Jimmy,
Look for Fusion MPT support and build all of that, as well as the VMWare
VMCI Driver, SCSI Disk/Device/Generic support, Buslogic SCSI support,
and PVSCSI support. You might need the VMXNET3 driver as well.
