Hello, I fail to bring up my kernel. Using the common 2.6.6 source, I always get stuck at VFS: cannot open root device "sda3" or fd0 I can see how the VIA SATA controller is detected, the initrd is found and the drivers for scsi, sd_mod, libata and finally sata_via are loaded. Then it tries to mount root via NFS and I am asked to insert a root floppy. After pressing any key, I get the final message I already wrote. So, I thought maybe 2.6.6 does not see SATA as a SCSI anymore and so the name of the disks might have changed. I tried with different names in my grub bootloader (root=/dev/hda3 instead of root=/dev/sda3) but with no success. I am using reiserfs and I already compiled this into the kernel to avoid any possible problem with the initrd. Needless to say that the box works fine with the 2.4.21-215 from SuSE. Any ideas? tia, einar
