Hi, > "VFS: Can't mount root" suggests that it's failing to mount the initrd > filesystem. For initrd, the root filesystem passed to the kernel from > the bootloader (via root=) should be /dev/ram0. You also have to tell > the bootloader where to find the filesystem image (e.g. via initrd= > for lilo). Yes, and I'm pointing lilo to the initrd, and can mount and read the initrd on its own. You don't mean root=/dev/ram0 instead of root=/dev/md1, right? This is why I was asking about lilo some time ago. I'm using the latest, but that's from 2007. Is it possible that it has a problem with this kernel? This box does work with an older 2.6.12 kernel that I built more than a year ago with the otherwise same system, including lilo.
