Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I've decided to reinstall my system to a stable one (I used ~x86 |
| 4 |
before). |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
To prepare the disk I've wiped out all of / except /home and all |
| 7 |
of /boot. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Th installation (according to the handbook) went smoothly. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
The new kernel starts up and then I get an VFS error saying that there |
| 12 |
is an invalid boot option root= ... and panics. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
/boot on /dev/hda1 or (hd0,0) is ext2, / on /dev/hda3 or (hd0,2) |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Here is my menu.lst: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
default 0 |
| 19 |
timeout 30 |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
title=Initial |
| 22 |
root (hd0,0) |
| 23 |
kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r4_initial root=/dev/hda3 |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
I've set up grub this way: |
| 26 |
grub> root (hd0,0) |
| 27 |
grub> setup (hd0) |
| 28 |
grub quit |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
The kernel is configured for ext2 and ext3 filesystems. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Has anyone an Idea? I don't have further :( |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Thanks in advance |
| 35 |
