I can't able to get to your problem, but I want to know if your device is hdc4 then root(hd0,8) have to be root(hd0,3) (but I might not be correct, as I havn't created / on hdc device rather created on hda only) .......... And do tell me that when you changed root=LABEL=/ to root=/dev/hdc4 then error remains same or changed to something else ??? b/c mkrootdev: label / not found Mounting root file system mount: error 2 mounting ext3 this error shows label / not found !!!!! -- Fawad Lateef -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
