Hi all, I have a laptop which doesn't have a brandname. It is a 'china make' and I think is assembled laptop. This laptop uses a promise SATA card, to which a harddisk is connected. So, during booting it requires a promise SATA card driver, otherwise Harddisk is not detected properly. I faced this problem with Windows and Linux installation. I could install linux in 3rd attempt. Anyways now the problem is that when i recompiled kernel 2.6.15.4 on the same machine it gives the following kernel panic message:
**************************************************************** Booting 'Fedora Core 4 (2.16.15.4)' Root (hd0,4) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 Kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15.4 ro root=LABEL=/1 rootfstype=ext3 enforcing=0 rhgb quiet [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1e00, size=0x19f457] Initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.15.4.img [Linux-initrd @ 0x1fd67000, 0x128da7 bytes ] Uncompressing Linux . . .
