Hello list, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I've tried to move my built-in ide (via) and rootfs (reiser) modules outside |
| 4 |
of the kernel, but when I try to boot the new kernel and its corresponding |
| 5 |
initramfs, it fails miserably with one of the following messages. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
If I use "root=/dev/hda7" (my root): |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Unable to mount root fs on unknown block (3,7) |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
If I use "root=/dev/ram" (that's the device in the initramfs made with |
| 12 |
mkinitrd): |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Unable to mount root fs on unknown block (1,0) |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I do this every day using Debian boxes, so why it is so hard on Gentoo? What's |
| 18 |
the correct way to make _and_ use an initramfs on Gentoo? |
| 19 |

Many thanks in advance, |
