(usagi-users 03375) Re: USAGI kernel problem

Many thanks for your response.

To create the kernel image I followed these steps:

- Uncompressed the USAGI tarball in /root: bunzip2
usagi-linux26-s20050117.tar.bz2 | tar xvf - 
- cd usagi, make prepare TARGET=linux26
- cd kernel, cd linux26
- make mrproper, make xconfig, make
- For back-up purposes, I renamed my existing /lib/modules/2.6.10 folder
and my existing /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10, /boot/System.map-2.6.10,
/boot/initrd-2.6.10 files. Then:
- make modules_install
- make install
- After this step I got the new files  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10,
/boot/System.map-2.6.10, /boot/initrd-2.6.10 as well as the new folder
/lib/modules/2.6.10.
- In the grub.conf file the root device is the same as before (when I
had the "non-USAGI" 2.6.10 kernel in working condition). And yet I still
encounter the error mentioned in the previuos message.

Thanks again,

TN

Hello,

I have a machine that ran Linux 2.6.9 originally. I upgraded the kernel
to 2.6.10, successfully.

Now I need to use the kernel provided by USAGI in snap
usagi-linux26-S20050117. However when I tried to boot the machine with
the USAGI kernel I got an errror message that says:

VFS: cannot open root device "VolGroup00/LogVol00" or unknown
block(0,0). Please append a correct "root=" boot option. kernel panic -
not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0).

Here's my grub.conf file:

default=2
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Fedora Core (2.6.10)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.10 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
initrd /initrd-2.6.10.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 initrd
/initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img

Things worked fine until I replaced the 2.6.10 kernel with the USAGI
2.6.10 kernel. Would anyone have any idea what went wrong ?

Thank you,

TN
