Hi,
I have a Dell X300 and I want to dual boot between Sarge and Etch. I
have two drives, /dev/hda that holds Etch (/dev/hda1) and /dev/sda that
holds Sarge (/dev/sda1). Both drives have swap space and grub and fstab
have the correct entries. Grub is installed on the MBR of /dev/hda and
the menu.lst resides in /boot/grub/.
Etch boots fine but Sarge terminates with:
pivot_root: No such file or directory
/sbin/init: 432:cannot open dev/console: No such file
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
/dev/hda is the regular drive of the laptop while /dev/sda is a drive
mounted in the cdrom bay. Once etch is booted, I can mount /dev/sda1 and
read/write to it.
Not sure what is going on.
Thanks in advance,
Daniel Devost
