Not sure if this is the problem, but it is the only thing I emerged since last reboot.
Getting:
Code: | >>Mounting root...
mount: Moutning /dev/hdc3 on /newroot failed: Invalid argumet
>> Could not mount specified ROOT, try agian
>> The root block device is unspecified or not detected. Please specify a device to boot, or "shell" for shell...
|
Running 2.6.8 Kernel, JFS on / and ext2 on /boot. Since install only upgrade is glibc and samba.
Running shell works and I can mount /boot but not my /root partition that is JFS.
Any ideas where to start looking? _________________ To learn but not think is pointless, to think but not learn is deangerus.

are you sure you have JFS support built into the kernel? |

Solved it. For some reason it had bad superblocks. So I had to start up the Gentoo cd and do jfs_fsck, then I could start up again. _________________ To learn but not think is pointless, to think but not learn is deangerus.
