 Posted: Thu Feb 19, 2004 2:17 am Post subject: Kernel Panic with Reiserfs on Solaris |
 |
|
I also posted this in the Solaris forum, but I am thinking that this might not be a Solaris specific problem so I wanted to post it here as well:
I am doing a fresh install of Gentoo (Kernel 2.4.23) on an Ultra5 with dual 80 GB HDs. I am setting up the system in a RAID1 configuration. The installation has gone smoothly and now I am trying to boot off of the system at the end of the installation and am having major problems. (Booting off of the LiveCD works fine.) The boot starts smoothly. I see that the two RAID 1 sets start properly and then I get some IP related commands:
| Code: | Initializing Cryptographic API
NET4: Linux TCP/IP 1.0 for NET4.0
IP Protocols: ICMP, UDP, TCP, IGMP
IP: routing cache hash table of 4096 buckets, 32Kbytes
TCP: Hash tables configured (established 32768 bind 32768)
****Here is where everything goes to hell****
sh-2021: reiserfs_read_super: can not find reiserfs on ide0(3,1)
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:01 |
Okay, now I understand that it looks like it cannot find reiserfs partition, but I am trying to figure out why this is the case. I believe that my fstab is correct, (see below) and I also definitely compiled reiserfs into the kernel NOT as a module. (again this is below. One thought, could there be something that is not compiled in the kernel and needs to be besides the obvious reiserfs stuff and the stuff listed in the install docs?) I have also included a print out of the partitions below and silo.conf. (Note also that "mount -t reiserfs /dev/md2 /mnt/gentoo" works fine when booting from the LiveCD so I know that md2 is running reiserfs.) Just as an fyi, the two drives are installed as masters on their own IDE channels and have the exact same partition layout. (hda and hdc)
I have reached the end of my Gentoo knowledge at this point and am stuck. Does anyone have any suggestions about what I should do? I have this feeling that something small is wrong, but I just have no idea and am feeling very frustrated.
TIA for any help.
