 |
|
This happens as soon as I boot off the Gentoo install image, 1.4-rc4:
Ramdisk: Couldn't find valid RAM disk image starting at 0.
read_super_block: can't find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev 01:00 block 64, size 1024)
read_super_block: can't find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev 01:00 block 8, size 1024)
XFS: Bad magic number
XFS: Bad magic number
kernel panic: VFS unable to mount root fs on 01:00
What's wrong? |

| your kernel cannot find the root partition, perhaps you did'nt set the right partition in lilo.conf or grub config. Try passing root=/dev/hd[*] to your kernel or reboot with the livecd and reconfigure your bootloader |

Hmmm, looks like it's broken. 
A description of your hardware would be helpful. |

I just popped the CD in, not even installed!
My system is an Athlon Xp 1.6 with a ECS Motherboard, 512 MB RAM, and Riva TNT2. |

Try booting one of the other kernels on the CD.
| Code: | boot: smp
or
boot: acpi
or
boot: nofb |
or maybe some kernel options
| Code: | | boot: gentoo noraid acpi=off |
