Posted: Wed Oct 20, 2004 5:18 am Post subject: hda1 reiser cant mount |
|
|
my reiserfs hda1 (/boot) wont mount at boot, thus disableing all my loadable modules... big shame
hda3 is reiserfs and it works fine so i know reiser is supported by the kernel
i can boot into linux from hda and do stuff but my /boot is empty, and lsmod shows empty and modprobe nvidia (as an example) will come up with some kind of liscense error
modprobe wont load anything
i herd theres a possibility that grub (my loader) dosent support reiser but if this is only the case, y does the system go ahead and boot and y am i not able to mount hda1 when its booted?
all of the above works fine when chrooted from the universal install cd
i suppose yall will want to see me fstab and grub.conf files so here ya go:
Code: |
/dev/hda1 /boot reiserfs defaults,notail,noatime 1 1
/dev/hda3 / reiserfs defaults,noatime 0 0
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
|
aaaaand the grub...
Code: |
default 0
timeout 30
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title=gentoo
root (hd0,0)
kernel /kernel-2.4.26-gentoo-r6 root=/dev/hda3
|
some other things that suck, i built the system with the *r9 kernel but the only two kernels in /boot (hda1) are *r6 and *r11
i configured the kernel with make menuconfig
i cant think of any more important information, thanks for any help you can give |

When you try to mount /dev/hda1 to /boot, do you get any errors?
If you type 'mount', does it list /dev/hda1 as already mounted after rebooting your system?
If hda1 really is blank, then you shouldn't be able to boot at all since grub can't load the kernel from hd0,0 (aka /dev/hda1). I'm guessing in your grub.conf, you left (hd0,0) out of the kernel line by accident...
You're also contradicting yourself a bit in your post. First you say,
Quote: | but my /boot is empty |
then you say
Quote: | the only two kernels in /boot (hda1) are *r6 and *r11 |
