I have Linux Rh 7.2 installed on my Dell Latitude C640 Laptop. It is partitioned with Win 2K professional as the other OS. I included some Xircom and Cisco WLAN card modules in the kernel configuration and recompiled the kernel. A problem then came up when I rebooted my machine with the new kernel. It failed to mount my root file system. I then included the ext3 file system module with the kernel and then recompiled it and rebooted it again. It still did not boot up and gave me a " Root fs did not mount " and the booting process just stays there doing nothing. I did the same thing on my second Dell C640 Latitude notebook and it gave me the same problem. Any help in this matter would be appreciated.
