| |
Hi all,
The kernel I have working is version 2.4.21-4.EL and I can still boot up to that. I compiled a 2.6.0 version and installed it in exactly the same way that the old version is, just appending 2.6.0 to the end of the file. so when I reboot I get a boot screen that shows:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (2.4.21-4.ELsmp) Red Hat Enterprise Linux As-up (2.4.21-4.EL) Red Hat linux (2.6.0)
Enterprise linux still boots up fine but when I try and boot up Red Hat linux (2.6.0) I get some ouput and then a kernel panic with this message:
<snip> Software Suspend has malfunctioning SMP support. Disabled :( ACPI: (supports S0 S1 S4 S5) RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0 RAMDISK: incomplete write (-1 !=32768) 4194304 VFS cannot open root device "LABEL=/" or unknown block (0,0) Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
I am running Linux Enterprise Edition version 3.0 on my server. It has 2 Xeon processors and 1 U360 scsi HD. The whole reason behind my compiling a kernel is trying to get support for high memory (this machine has 4 gigs of ram) and multi-processor support.
I'm pretty sure I selected all scsi and driver support because when i run the same kernel with RedHat Linux 9.0 in same machine it works fine. Everything is compiled in and not as modules.
This is snip of my grub.conf file: # grub.conf generated by anaconda # default=0 timeout=10 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm title RedHat Enterprise Linux AS (2.4.21-4.ELsmp) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.21-4.EL ro root=LABEL=/ initrd /initrd-2.4.21-4.EL.img title RedHat Linux (2.6.0) root (hd0,0) kernel /linux-2.6.0 ro root=LABEL=/ initrd /initrd-2.6.0.img
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance,
Neel
