Vishal, try specifying "root=/your/rootdevice" at the bootprompt. That's easy. Failing that here's more: 1. Run "lilo" , if you are using lilo. 2. Maybe you forgot to do mkinitrd, for loading reiser or other modules needed for filesystemaccess. HTH. Regards Dan Ps: By the way, for more comfortable kernel configure, try : make xconfig. Pps: Read the fine manual :-) Am Freitag, 31. Januar 2003 08:19 schrieb Vishal Khanna:

At Boot I get the following error:
Kernel Panic:
