Hi there! A mother board died, so I put the hard drives into an old spare PC, rebuilt the kernel via chroot in order to include some necessary drivers, and all was well. Until I plugged in the 2nd hard drive. Then, the thing reboots after these messages:
[...] VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly on device 8:6 Freeing unused kernel memory: 304k freed kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds Instead, I think init should start. When I unplug the drive, it boots fine. Both drives are partitioned this way: sda5: /boot ext2 sda6: / ext3 sda7-sda13: LVM GRML boots fine with both drives. Any ideas? Wonko
