Hi, I installed FC2 on my test machine, to test my kernels and I keep hitting the following VFS panic error: http://www.cs.uic.edu/~hnagaraj/vfs-panic.png My grub.conf looks like this: <snip> default=1 timeout=10 title FC2 root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.5-1.358 ro root=/dev/sda2 initrd /initrd-2.6.5-1.358.img title test root (hd0,0) kernel /bzImage ro root=/dev/sda2 </snip> The first kernel (default=0) works fine. The second kernel (default=1) is a vanilla 2.6.13.1 and contains no modules; that is everything has been compiled in, so I figured that I do *not* need a ramdisk (initrd) and just having the kernel - bzImage (compressed kernel) is ample. The config file is here: http://www.cs.uic.edu/~hnagaraj/test-config The relevant sections from my fstab look like this: <snip> /dev/sda2 / ext3 defaults 1 1 /dev/sda1 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 </snip> Am I missing something? Thanks, Hareesh
