All, I am having a problem rebuilding a kernel a suse 7.0. My initial install, including source files, of 2.2.16 of the kernel was successful. I modified some parameters, rebuilt the kernel and rebooted successfully with my parameter changes. I then downloaded the 2.2.19 default kernel upgrade from the SuSe website and used rpm to install the package. My parameters were reset to the default. I downloaded the source for 2.2.19 and attempted to rebuild the kernel with my parameter changes but each time that I reboot after the rebuild, I get the following error: Partition check: Root fs not mounted VFS: cannot open root device 48:03 Kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 48:03. Can anyone tell me what this means and how to resolve this problem?

Did you mk_initrd? You will need that if you have ReiserFS as a module or you are using a Drive controller like a RAID/SCSI/Promise Regards, Jon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Urey, Dawn" <UreyD@pginw.com> To: <suse-linux-e@suse.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 1:31 PM Subject: [SLE] rebuilding kernel

I modified some parameters, rebuilt the kernel and rebooted successfully with my parameter changes. I then downloaded the 2.2.19 default kernel upgrade from the SuSe website and used rpm to install the package. My parameters were reset to the default.

Partition check: Root fs not mounted
VFS: cannot open root device 48:03 Kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 48:03.
Can anyone tell me what this means and how to resolve this problem?
