OK, something weird is going on with a new install I just did. I might |
| 2 |
have hosed /dev. I though udev takes card of /dev? |

When I boot the new install, I get a kernel panic about the root= line |
| 5 |
in my grub.conf. So from the grub boot menu I press c and entered: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
root (hd0,0) |
| 8 |
Filesytem type is reiserfs... |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
kernel /boot/kern[TAB] (grub auto-completes) root=/dev[TAB] |
| 11 |
Error 11: Unrecongnized device string. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Did I break something or forget something? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I booted into the gentoo install CD and mounted /dev/sda1 and /dev on my |
| 16 |
disk is empty. I started to mknod some devices, however that could take |
| 17 |
all night. Besides, I thought udev handles that? Or do I need a base |
| 18 |
set of device files for the kernel until udev kicks in? |
