Hi,

Some suggested adding  ide_core.nodma=0.0 to kernel parameter at grub prompt, 
please try and let us know the result.

Hi Everyone,
I can see that this has been encountered before on other systems using 0.6.5. 
Has this been solved?
Voyage 0.5.2 works perfectly on this same system. When trying to boot with 
0.6.5 I get the following:
Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
-Boot args
-Check rootdelay
-Missing modules
Alert! /dev/disk/by-label/ROOT_FS does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
When I type 'cat /proc/partitions' i get a blank list.
When i type 'ls /dev' i get 'ls:not found'
I have tried changing the root device to /dev/hda1, hdb1, sda1, and sdb1 with 
no success
I have tried adding 'ide=nodma all_generic_ide' to the root= line with no 
success
I have tried rootdelay=10 with no success
Not sure what to try next. I want to upgrade to 0.6.5 to take advantage of the new features and kernel but just can't seem to get it to work.
If anyone has any ideas they would be greatly appreciated..
THanks,,
Matt
