9.0 - Mount to root.. Sorted..

2012-04-09 Thread Airosoβicz fb .
Hi all,

As Warren Block mentioned:

So I've checked my custom kernel config (based on GENERIC) & indeed made
some changes to the [S]ATA disk section after which I rebuilt & installed
the kernel again.. The difference now with previous was that I *was* able
to boot in single-user mode, mount, label my disk with tunefs, update my
/etc/fstab accordingly & managed to install the world as a final step to my
upgrade..

Problem solved, many thanx for all the assistance..

Regards,
E.

Good to know, but next time you shouldn't go overboard with customizing the
kernel configuration file:-)
