I saw this prob when my boot device/partition in the bootloader config was wrong or the filesystem of my root partition is not compiled as a kernel image rather compiled as module, so plz try to solve this prob by selecting your desired filesystem in kernel configuration as Y rather than M ...... I hope this will work > '>'> > I'm booting with my image of kernel 2.4.29..... i'm 5 days tryng > to solve > '>'> > this problem ... Upgrading from 2.4.xx kernel series to 2.6.xx series what I found is that the filesystem must be compiled into the kernel image not as a module b/c in 2.4.xx filesystem compiled as module also work ........ And another thing is that I never succedded in booting the 2.6.xx kernel __successfully__ compiled from 2.4.xx series (distribution with default 2.4.xx series kernel like Fedora Core 1 or Redhat Linux 9) and found that my mouse won't work on 2.6.xx series kernel, but the distribution with 2.6.xx kernel series by default works fine ..... -- Fawad Lateef - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
