Help: 2.6 and kernel panic
Hi folks,
I trying to compile a Linux 2.6 kernel, but i'm getting a kernel panic. Here are the last messages i get:
---
RAMDISK: cramfs filesystem found at block 0
RAMDISK: Loading 3076 blocks [1 disk] into ramdisk... done
sh-2621: reiserfs_fill_super: can not find reiserfs on ram0
Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on hda2
---
Anybody has any idea of what might be causing that, please?
What i find strange is that it's trying to find a reiserfs on ram0, when i suppose it should try to find it in hda2, which is my root fs, and which is a reiserfs partition. But maybe i'm wrong, i don't know.
Any help is appreciated...
Thanks,
Victor.
EDIT: Oh, and i have reiserfs support compiled into the kernel (not as module).

I''ve just noticed that i haven''t put suport for CRAMFS into the kernel:
CONFIG_CRAMFS=m
Maybe that''s the problem?
Thanks

Have you enabled reiserfs in the kernel config ?
"THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT IS CLASSIFIED; DO NOT GO TO FOX NEWS TO READ OR OBTAIN A COPY." , the pentagon
after I emerged 2.6, Gentoo prompted me to add some special kernel parameters at boot time:
root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc real_root=/dev/hdax
Where hdax is your "real" root partition (i.e. the partition mounted at /)
While I''ve not tried the kernel myself yet (waiting for KDE to compile - yay Gentoo! ), you may want to try this if you haven''t already.
root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc real_root=/dev/hdax
Where hdax is your "real" root partition (i.e. the partition mounted at /)

Hmm... i haven''t tried - i''m compiling the kernel with cramfs into the kernel - but thanks, i''ll try that too!

Euhm, must learn to read the full post.

Just for the record: i managed to get it working by enabling CRAMFS support into the kernel. But now i regreat i got it working... (read my post "That''s it, 2.6 sucks.").

So, does the problem still occur?
Did you compile it using
Good luck, I too just installed Gentoo an am loving it!
Did you compile it using
make menuconfig && make && make modules_install
? or did you use Genkernel? If you did not use Genkernel, then try somthing like the following, this is what I have (assuming you use GRUB):# Gentoo Linuxtitle=Gentoo Linux 2.6.1root (hd0,4)kernel (hd0,4)/kernel-2.6.1 root=/dev/hda7 vga=0x317 splash=verbose
Good luck, I too just installed Gentoo an am loving it!
Rate me up.
