sir! perahaps i was n't able to express my requirements by the above mail(sorry for that). i want to edit boot loader configuration for loading my own kernel. for this i have to edit the following line :-- kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.5-1.358 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet like some "kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda5". but i don't know what i should write in place of LABEL. i.e. /dev/hda2 , /dev/hda3 or /dev/hda5. so; kindly read the following files and suggest me what should i do. My Grub.conf file is :-- # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,2) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda5 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/hda default=1 timeout=10 splashimage=(hd0,2)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title Fedora Core (2.6.5-1.358) root (hd0,2) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.5-1.358 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet initrd /initrd-2.6.5-1.358.img title Other rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1 My /etc/fstab file is :-- LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 /dev/hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0 df -a output is :-- Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda5 25395572 7120984 16984552 30% / none 0 0 0 - /proc none 0 0 0 - /sys none 0 0 0 - /dev/pts usbdevfs 0 0 0 - /proc/bus/usb /dev/hda3 99075 7320 86640 8% /boot none 254168 0 254168 0% /dev/shm sunrpc 0 0 0 - /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs As, you want to know about what parameters i am going to change? i 'm going to change the "sched.c" parameters. hoping for quick reply.
