Hello,
I have EXT3 built into the kernl. My grub file
section for this kernel looks as follows:
title 2.6.9-prep
root (hd0,4)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-prep ro
root=hda4
I have tried a few combination of root=hda4,
root=hda5, root=(hd0,4). All gives me the same error
msg as follows:
VFS: Cannot open root device "hda4" or
unknown-block(0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root
fs on unknown-block(0,0)
Try using the full path name, i.e. /dev/hda4
