unable to mount root fs

Hello everyone.

I installed Gentoo. I manually configured the kernel. I have not used genkernel.

If a boot Gentoo, I am receiving the following error:

Couldn't mount because of unsupported features (4)
kernel panic: VFS. unable te omount root fs on 03:09

Has somebody an idea how to solve this error. THnx

Did you remember to compile into the kernel (not as a module) support for your root filesystem? That's the most likely cause of the problem...

What kernel version are you using? I don't have access to a 2.4 kernel, but I'll install the source tree so I can guide you...
