Hi, I've got two RH8.0 systems, I'm building kernels (2.4.20) on one for deploying on the other (different architectures, set up etc). The first problem I encountered (one that has been reported in the archives) is that the kernel fails to boot with: 'Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 00:00' - to get round this I modified lilo to give the root partition (i.e. /dev/hda7 in my case). This makes it boot further but the rc.sysinit script blows up when trying to remount the / partition and then everything falls apart. I've run this same kernel on a RH6.2 system and it works fine (I'm porting our app which originally was based on a RH6.2 install to RH8.0). I wondered if there was something in the rc.sysinit file causing the problem and so took rc.sysinit from one of the old 6.2 systems (only as a test) but that also blows up at the same point - so I guess it must be different behaviour in some of the updated binaries (i.e. mount etc.). Anyone got any ideas on how to solve this? Any help much appreciated, Thanks, Glen -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
