I'm having problems booting 2.4.17 on a Mandrake 8.1 system (with all current updates). When I boot 2.4.17 (with an initrd image) I get the following... kernel boots ... Creating root device mkrootdev: mknod failed: 17 Mounting root filesyste with flags data=ordered Mount: error 16 mounting ext3 flags data=ordered ...Tried to remount without flags and fails with the same error... Kernel Panic: No initrd found ... I am using ext3 / /boot /usr /var & /home filesystems 2.4.8-34.1mdk boots fine however. I'm about to go try 2.4.16 (it was working with reiserfs partitions before). The machine is an AMD Athalon 1.3 Ghz on an EPOC board with a 3ware 7800 series RAID card, with three 75/80 GB drives in a RAID 5 array. Anyone else run into something like this? I'll report back about 2.4.16 and if anyone would like more info, just shout. -- ------------------------------- Edward Muller Director of IS 973-715-0230 (cell) 212-487-9064 x115 (NYC) http://www.learningpatterns.com ------------------------------- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
