I've been trying to rebuild my system with a new partition layout (which I'll admit is overly complex, but I wanted to try it). Well, once I got it to reboot, but my / partition as running at 100% capacity, and this was BEFORE i installed anything (think I was lucky it booted..). Well, now I've gotten it to a farther point - my new layout seems to be OK, but I keep having problems with a kernel panic. Seems that my system doesn't like the setup.

Going to try to remake the fss, and trying it over again.

I'm about to write out a script to do this automatically, actually.

But, anyways, has anyone else run into problems like this?

Can't really say very much without the kernel panic message, the output of sfdisk -l /dev/[sh]dX, fstab, the IDE/SATA chipset (lspci and lspci -n): check [FAQ] KC13: I just installed a new kernel and it won't boot for the kernel configuration essentials to get your root filesystem to mount.

If it's any form of RAID, forget I said anything :)

I rebooted, reformatted, and it works fine now. Just trying to install everything now (only a few dozen programs, lol).

Didn't remember to reboot after fdisk. Hrm...
