Hi:
The /proc seems not contain the file you mention.
My bad. Its /proc/config.gz (without the dot). This entry only
comes if your kernel is configured for it. Else you can find
config under /boot/config-... .
Sincerely Yours,
vichy

BTW, how could I get the old configuration, since I install the present OS by Fedora8-install-DVD.iso
Also /proc/.config.gz has your configuration for the running kernel.

Hi:
Here the .config is.
A quick look shows if the /root is on IDE device the .config look OK.
The SCSI is missing though. However Danial advice is appropriate
use oldconfig to build the new kernel.
Thanks.

Dear all:
I download Linux 2.6.20.10 and make the kernel by selecting EVERY ide device
driver
But I reboot it with a kernel panic like below:
"Not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (0,0)"
Could someone tell me where I go wrong?
Sincerely Yours,
vichy
IDE device driver is OK. But you also need FS (ext2/3, xfs ...)
build into you kernel. Post you .config file if you think its
more comlicated than this.
Thanks.
