X-Mailer: VM 6.75 under Emacs 19.34.1 Reply-To: drew@drewb.com Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org I know I've seen this in the past, but the answer slips my mind and I can't find anything in the archives. I've just set up a box w/ an aic7xxx card. The boot drive hangs off that card. During installation, the boot drive is sda. Lilo contains "root=/dev/sda8". I compiled a new kernel with the 3ware raid driver. When I rebooted, the 3ware card driver must have been loaded first; /dev/sda8 was no longer the root device. How do I control the device designations during boot? -- Drew Bertola | Send a text message to my pager or cell ... | http://jpager.com/Drew - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
