I am having a problem with the 2.4.17 kernel and my RAID 5. After compiling the kernel with raid support, I get the following error which prevent the machine from booting. "EXT3 -fs unable to read superblock isofs_read_super: bread failed: dev=09:00, iso_blk_num=16, block=32 Kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 09:00" I have searched the web and found similar errors which point to the RAID being 09:00. Has anyone had similar problems with the 2.4.17 kernel or any kernel for that matter? And is so, how did you overcome this? Thanks in advance for any help given...
