El Tue, 15-01-2002 a las 11:01, Jostein Berntsen escribi?: Hi, Does anyone have a recipe for booting the 2.4.17 kernel(or any vanilla kernel) in SuSE 7.3, and successfully loading ext3 as the root file system? I suppose you can't use the mk_initrd script then? When I try to load the 2.4.17 from Lilo at bootup I just get a black screen. In Grub I get "VFS: Kernel Panic Unable to mount root fs". Regards, Jostein Besides a possilbe misconfiguration of kernel sources, probably you are missing quantity of Initial RAM Disk (initrd) at kernel config at Block devices/RAM disk support/Default RAM Disk size ---->>> put 64000. And as "root fs", I think ext3 is still a bit unstable; try using Reiserfs if you want to use a real Journalling file system.
