I just compiled and installed the 2.2 kernel with the debian kernel package and I got the following error on booting:
Partition check hda: driver not present VFS: Cannot open root device 03:01 Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:01 Did I do something wrong with the kernel's IDE configuration (I have a IDE 2.5 GB Quantum Bigfoot)? I reran LILO after installing the kernel deb. It won't boot from the kernel floppy I created either so I'm inclined to think the kernel is misconfigured for IDE. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks, Steve
