Hello. I recently recompiled my 2.6.8 kernel. Now I can no longer boot my system. It fails with the message "cannot open root device "801" or unknown-block(8,1)".
I am using a Symbios SCSI card without any IDE devices (save the CDROM)
in my system. My lilo.conf properly identifies the boot device and root
device ("boot=/dev/sda" and "root=/dev/sda1"). The SCSI drivers are
compiled directly into the kernel, and the devices are all seen on
bootup.
My previous 2.6.8 kernel boots, but not this one. The only change I
made was to enable HFS filesystem (so I can play with my new iPod).
Any ideas?
Please respond directly as I am not monitoring the list (but do, of
course, CC: the list).
Thank you.
