Subject: [newbie] kernel panic
hi everybody :)
I have just installed mandrake 7.0 lnx4win
everything >seems< to be working fine, but when I try
to start linux, it continues a bit past the part where harddrives are being
detected, and then displays something like:
kernel panic: could not locate root 08:01
or something like that
not very concise, but I didn't have the time to take
notes..
I believe my system specs are adequate.. 128
ram, amd k7 600, 2 gb free drive space
also, in case you can't help.. what is the easiest way to
install mandrake for a guy who has been tormented by Bill for countless
years?
