I've used A James Lewis' procedure (thank you) to mirror root on a couple of systems w/ rh 6.0 (kernel 2.2.10). I tried my 1st 6.1 (kernel 2.2.12) machine & it didn't work, yet. After creating the mdx root partition & copying the files, I ran lilo & rebooted. OK. At this point, instead of successfully booting as under rh 6.0, 6.1 stops with the errors: mount point /proc does not exist mount returned non-zero exit status /proc not mounted, failed to mount At this point nothing happens until I Ctrl-D & then am dropped into a bash prompt. I'm trying to get going again & point root back to sdax, but lilo complains with: can't locat module block-major-3 what happened? this worked so well before.
