Did you run the buildit.s to install the new kernel and change all instances of bz2bzImage to bzImage in setttings.s and buildit.s? The default tomsrtbt uses bzip2 kernel and ramdisk compression, the default 2.4.x kernel does not support it, the buildit.s will use gzip instead of bzip2 if you do it right, you cannot just swap the kernel with an unpatched 2.4. -Tom On Fri, 11 Oct 2002, Holger Eitzenberger wrote: > Date: Fri, 11 Oct 2002 14:20:12 +0200 > From: Holger Eitzenberger <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Subject: [tomsrtbt] Problem with kernel 2.4.x upgrade > > Hi, > > I have a problem when upgrading tomsrtbt 2.0.103 to kernel 2.4.19 > (needed for proper USB support). > > The kernel was built on the same host but not from a booted tomsrtbt. > Every other step (unpack.s, ...) was done on a booted tomsrtbt. > > The new kernel image is not able the find the root FS and stops > with a message similar to: > > VFS: unable to find root fs at block 867 > > However, the block adress 867 is the same as on the unmodified 2.0.103 > tomsrtbt although my 2.4.19 kernel is much smaller (~600KiB) compared > to the 2.2.20ext3 kernel (~800KiB). > > Any ideas? > > Thanks in advance. > > /Holger > > -- > +++ GnuPG Key -> http://www.t-online.de/~holger.eitzenberger +++ >
