I'm kind of newbie in linux.
I installed RH 6.0 in server mode, with kernel 2.2.5
I want to upgrade the kernel to 2.2.9 (test only)
After compiling the kernel and booting I get the following
message and kernel doesn't boot :
....
Starting kswapd v1.5
request_module[block-major-3]: Root fs not mounted
VFS: Cannot open root device 03:08
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:08
_________________
and hangs!
At compile time it says this:
............
............
Root device is (3, 8)
Boot sector 512 bytes.
Setup is 3540 bytes.
System is 346 kB
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.9/arch/i386/boot'
in lilo.conf :
