Hi,
I am in a kind of frustrated mood. My nice had some troble with the 6.2 installation I made, so I decited to upgrade to 6.4 and give her another harddrive.
I installed the system on my machine -since it is faster- (mounted as hdc), this resulted in some other modules for initrd and USB support that wasn't on the other system.
After which you installed the disk as hda on her system. (?)
After repairing lilo.conf I tried to reboot and ended in "unable to mount root fs on 16:07" after rebooting.
This is /dev/hdc7 ---> you did not successfully inform lilo of the new location of your root partition?
I could however boot the installed system via CD (boot installed system)
You did remember to run lilo after fixing lilo.conf? (And do so on the new system?) What partitions are on the new disk? If boot is on a seperate partition you may have to have /boot and / mounted when you run lilo -r /mnt from the rescue cdrom
I knew this error from my first kernel baking attempts -having a SCSI controle and a nice configured module ;-) - but this time I use the default kernel (tried the special IDE on as well) that works well with *this* system.
I might be overseeing something obvious, but remail clueless. Have a heart, I am her great guru ans have a reputation to loose. My frustration does not anybody help any further. HELP HELP PLEASE!!
