Hi.. In my experience this error:
Error message on boot: VFS: cannot open root device "hdd2" on unknown-block(0,0) Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel-Panic not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) is about bad configuration in grub/lilo, check the real number of your root partition and remember: if you use Grub (great idea) add the real root partition number parameter to your kernel coniguration, plus the init parameter. This problem probably is the result of a change of your pool of disks or changes in your partitions or bad parameter in you boot config file.. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=10 That can help you i guess. I hope help you... P.D : Excuse me for my english i'm learning about it. Have a VERY nice day. On 3/24/07, Kristian Poul Herkild <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Oh well... I've been battleling with my Silicon Image PCI ATA-133 controller. I've spent the last 7-8 hours trying to compile a working kernel with support for the extra IDE controller. But so far I've failed. I've tried several combinations (with/without support for CMD0680 - with/without xtables - on 2.6.18 and 2.6.19) - and have tracked the problem to the PCI IDE controller. I've googled for hours as well, but I have no clues but one: Enabling support for the PCI IDE/PATA Controller apparently pushes the device names for the on-board IDE/PATA controller (e.g. /d_ev/hdd becomes /dev/hdh). Is that even possible? That the extra PCI ATA-Controller takes precedence over the on-board Controller?
