 |
|
I did a kernel uppgrade today and now my kernel panics everytime I boot. complaining about my root= var in grub conf is wrong (it can't find my sda3 partition).
Has there been any changes to how udev /dev is managed that I am unaware of? I have rechecked and trippledchecked the kernel and it is ok. I have support for sata disks and extfs3.
Any hints?
*update
It seems like during boot it finds my disk as hda3 (wich is wrong). When I try to boot it as hda3 (root=/dev/hda3) it get past the earlier panic point but fails when chext2 tries to run.
I'm quite confused right now

From which kernel did you upgrade?
I had similar probs when updating from 2.6.18 to 2.6.20 or something like that.
IIRC, they changed the location of the sata drivers in the kernel config.
This is the current location.

x Location:
x -> Device Drivers
x -> Serial ATA (prod) and Parallel ATA (experimental) drivers
x -> ATA device support (ATA [=y]) |

| I don't get it. I have the same problem. I've just compiled the latest stable kernel with my saved .config from a 2.6.19 that worked just fine. Now when i boot with the install cd my disk shows up as sda, but when I boot my system it seems to be identified as hda an the kernel panics. What do I do? |

My error was solved by removing the support for Generic IDE in the kernel (it was somewhere in the device driver section, under ATA I think). Do note that my laptop don't use ATA so I could do it without problems.
