I am having trouble getting recent -mm kernels to boot on my test box.
For 2.6.11-rc3-mm2 and 2.6.11-rc4-mm1 I get the following:

VFS: Cannot open root device "301" or unknown-block(3,1)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(3,1)

Please set CONFIG_BASE_FULL=y. Check that this causes CONFIG_BASE_SMALL=0, then retest.

Yes, that worked. 2.6.11-rc4-mm1 now boots OK, but hdb1 seems to be missing.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] steven]# uname -r
2.6.11-rc4-mm1-GX110
[EMAIL PROTECTED] steven]# mount -t reiser4 /dev/hdb1 /reiser4_testing
mount: special device /dev/hdb1 does not exist

Reading another post (and looking in /dev), I tried hdq:
