Hi list; I just installed Fedora Core 2 last 2 days. The binaries work fine from the installation CDs that I have no problem installing the full system and booting up the machine i686 P4. However, when I build the kernel from the source with the default configuration for arch/i386, booting up the machine failed due to initrd failing to mount the ext3 root file system. It failed when linuxrc trying to mount the root fs with pivot_root(). Please advise. Thanks. Regards, TEH
