Hey everyone, |
| 2 |

I'm new to Gentoo, but not to Linux. For some reason I seem to be |
| 4 |
struggling to get it booted after installing. Basically my setup is I |
| 5 |
have 3 partitions as follows: /dev/hda1 (32MB EXT3) used as /boot. |
| 6 |
/dev/hda2 (512MB) for swap, and the rest is on /dev/hda3 (ReiserFS). |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
The contents of my /boot/grub/grub.conf is as follows: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
default 0 |
| 11 |
timeout 30 |
| 12 |
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
title=Gentoo Linux 2.6.17-r8 |
| 15 |
root (hd0,0) |
| 16 |
kernel /kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r8 root=/dev/hda3 |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Everything look normal so far? Well when I reboot, and select Gentoo on |
| 19 |
the GRUB list, it starts to load and then I get the following error: |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
VFS: Cannot open root device "hda3" or unknown-block(0,0) |
| 22 |
Please append a correct "root=" boot option |
| 23 |
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on |
| 24 |
unknown-block(0,0) |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |

Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in |
| 28 |
advance! |
