GRUB configuration after installing new kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have compiled a new kernel and put the bzImage in
/boot/kernel-2.6.5/bzImage (boot is a separate partition).
 
I opened my grub.conf file and added:
title Kernel 2.6.5
root hd(0,2) =>this line was like that in the old kernel config so i copied it to the new config
kernel /kernel-2.6.5/bzImage root=/dev/sda6 ro
 
and I think that the last line is the cause of the problem. I get an error message that says that linux cannot mount.
 
but my Howto (yeah I'm like super-newbie) said that I had
to check the output from df and take the device that had the '/' mount point and that was /dev/sda6
 
Anyway,
somewhere I must have made a big mistake
 
It would be nice if someone could correct me
 
Matt.
