I am trying to run a custom kernel with gentoo on linode64, but there's |
2 |
strange problem I'm facing. |
3 |
The root always gets mounted read-only, I don't know why. I have this |
4 |
line in menu.lst: |
5 |
|
6 |
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-3.1.6-gentoo root=/dev/xvda rw |
7 |
|
8 |
Also, the /etc/fstab line says: |
9 |
/dev/xvda / defaults,noatime 0 1 |
10 |
|
11 |
Everytime I boot with the custom kernel, the root is getting mounted as |
12 |
read only. The funniest thing is, even after proper shutdown, a disk |
13 |
error pops up on /dev/xvda, because I see the message during boot. |
14 |
|
15 |
Anybody knows how to get this thing working? I don't want to use |
16 |
linode's stock kernel, the xfs code in it seems to have some bug. |
