Hi all. I've just recompiled my kernel by going through the make menuconfig make dep make clean make zlilo
procedure, but the new kernel won't boot properly. It gets as far as: ... VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly Unable to open an initial console This "Unable to open an initial console" error is driving me nutty. The computer just hangs at this point. The reason I'm able to send mail to you now is because I backed-up my old kernel. Some changes I made in the "make menuconfig" configuration were that I took out PCMCIA support (since I'm not on a laptop) and added triton chipset support. I also took out ISDN, ethernet, fddi, and token ring, since my machine is stand-alone. I must have made some other changes, though, to get this nasty error... Any info on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks :) -- Harmon
