hello world !
anyway the kernel can not boot with /dev/hda5 as my root partition 
i have installed gentoo and a kernel (incl every filesystem support and automount) on dev/hda5! i always mounted dev/hda5 and so this must be right, i think!
fdisk says:
...
| Quote: | Device Boot Start End Blocks ID System
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 * 1 1 7689 61761861 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part2 * 7690 8547 6891856+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part3 * 8548 9729 9494415 7 W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part4 * 8548 9593 8401963+ 7 Linux
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part5 * 9594 9729 1092388+ 7 Linux Swap |
now, at the moment, when the kernel has to use the root dev, it fails and tells me, i should start fsck manually because it was unable to repair my root partition.
but fsck /dev/hda5 checks the hdd part and does not tell me anything about an error or sth like that!
so, whats going on with it ?
thank you for helping! |

either the superblock or the partition table is likely to be corrupt!
linux: unexpected inconsistency; run fsck manually.
(i.e., without -a or -p options)

give root password to maintenance ....... |
