Well, I didn't see any reason to try this. The kernel should know where the root filesystem lives.
I've tried it just now: The panic is the same. The only difference is that the unknown device is (hd3,3). I've even tried to set "root=(hd0,2)" (I know, this is NOT what ``info grub'' says) :o( Just the same . See if we can solve this. For so far: the ~x86 system worked better ;( Regards Frank On Sun, 2006-08-20 at 15:16 +0000, iccc wrote: > Graham Murray wrote: > > "Mirek Dvořák" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > > >> what about fstab? > >> Mirek > > > > Is fstab relevant at this point?
