Hi,
2.6.0-test3 cannot mount my root fs, it says 'mounting root fs (ntfs) read
only' and then complains that there is no init. 2.4.20 runs fine.
my lilo.conf:
lba32
compact
menu-scheme=Wg:kw:Wg:Wg
boot=/dev/hda
install=/boot/boot-menu.b
map=/boot/map
prompt
timeout=30
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.0-test3
root=/dev/hda3
label=2.6.0-test3
append="reboot=warm"
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20
root=/dev/hda3
label=Linux-2.4.20
# append="reboot=warm video=riva:1024x768-8@60"
append="reboot=warm"
read-only
my fstab:
/dev/hda3 / reiserfs notail 0 0
/dev/hda7 none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /floppy auto user,noauto 0 0
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hda5 /ntfs ntfs ro,gid=users,umask=002 0 0

This may not be the problem. I just got 2.6.0-test3 booting
after similar error messages by changing my .config file.
using root=0303 didn't make it boot.
Not sure which changes made it boot.
Most likely, it's compiling ext3 into kernel (not a module).
2.4.20 kernels fell back to ext2 when mounting an ext3 partition.
BUT, I made that change once and it didn't work....
or maybe I forgot to install it. I'm still working thought the
combinations.

Yup, these patches worked, 2.6.0-test3 is running.
