I have got a little further now in my quest. This has now become something I need to acomplish, even if someone gave me a USB CD-ROM I wouldn't use it now...hehe.
I will write up a little paper for the list when I have finally completed this, in the hope that nobody else will have to go through this again :)
OK, I have now got my laptop to dowload a kernel over the network via PXE. The kernel starts to load and detect all the hardware. However it stops at this point: Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 48:05 What does this mean and how can I rectify it?
I am still new to Linux, so please bear with me.
Appologies, I have just realised I provided the wrong line. Should have been as follows: VFS: Cannot open root device "" or 48:05 Please append a correct "root=" boot option ernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 48:05 OK, now what does this mean :) Thanks -- -=SuSE Linux 9.0=-
