 |
|
notebook: ibm 570e
everytime i make an softreboot i get the following error:
| Code: |
VFS: Cannot open root device "hda5" or hda5
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on hda5
|
it works when i'm turning the nb off and then on again.
ps: i tried several file-systems as / and several 2.6.x kernel;

| From the error it seems to me that your lilo/grub.conf is trying to tell the kernel that it should be booting to hda5 when you should specify /dev/hda5 for the root option. |

my grub.conf
| Code: |
timeout 5
default 0
title artemis (framebuffer)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /kernel-2.6.7-rc2 root=/dev/hda5 video=vesafb:ywrap,mtrr vga=0x317
title artemis
root (hd0,0)
kernel /kernel-2.6.7-rc2 root=/dev/hda5

Scratch that then 
and your sure that /dev/hda5 is your main (/) partition and that /dev/hda1 is your /boot partition? Sorry to ask such a basic question, but aside from that, I'm clueless. Apart from making sure that you installed grub right... |

i'm sure 
'cause it works when i turn the computer on. only a reboot makes troubles.
ps: i removed everything unnecessary from my kernel config such as sound, usb, acpi, apm, ...
and it works ... gonna testing. but it sucks with an p3-450mhz  |
