Re: Fedora Core 2: initrd failed to mount ext3 root fs.

Hi;
      I used the configuration under /boot and with ramdisk support as
verified in `make xconfig`. Unfortunately I can't (or I don't know) how to
capture the boot console and post it here. However, I saw the ramdisk
booting fine. It is only when the system is about to mount the ext3 rootfs
it fails. Any idea what's wrong with that?

Regards,
TEH

Which configuration is that? The one the Fedora Core 2 kernel comes with
under /boot?
