Hi Richard, |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
I think you are correct. I just scanned through the output of those two |
| 29 |
commands and I believe I may have missed the IDE chipset. I'm going to |
| 30 |
try enabling it and see if that helps. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
As for the other two responses, I did compile ReiserFS directly into the |
| 33 |
kernel, and also tried changing the kernel line in grub.conf to read |
| 34 |
kernel (hd0,0)/kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r8 root=/dev/hda3 with little success. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Hopefully this will work though. |
| 37 |
|

Thanks again! |
