It means that I got the usual "VFS: could not find root filesystem on device (8,8)" (or however it is spelled). Oh, and that I had to add netconsole to see what was causing it, but that is easy enough to do. > Is this a regression?

OK, I'll try to be more verbose in the future (on patches). --- ~Randy - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
