Hey all I have a problem activating a new kernel I am hoping someone can help. I do the the following: cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.19 make mrproper -> successful make xconfig - > successful make dep -> successful make clean -> successful make bzImage -> successful make modules -> successful make modules_install -> successful mkinitrd --with=ext3 /boot/initrd-2.4.19.img 2.4.19 -> fails "no mbcache module mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.19.img 2.4.19 -> successful make install -> successful reboot to new kernel -> fails "kernel panic unable to mount root fs" grub.conf looks like this: # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,0) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda2 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/hda default=0 timeout=10 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-17.8.0) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-17.8.0 ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi initrd /initrd-2.4.18-17.8.0.img title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-14) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-14 ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi initrd /initrd-2.4.18-14.img title Red Hat Linux (2.4.191) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.191 ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi initrd /initrd-2.4.191.img Any advice is greatly appreciated Sincerely Phil Lambert -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
