I am building a development box that requires starting with slink. The system is up and functioning; but, now, I need to implement a 2.2.19 kernel. It builds successfully; but, has problems at bootup.
The system: Pentium 150 64MB RAM /dev/sda1 - swap /dev/sda2 - / /dev/scd0 - cdrom /dev/hdb1 - /usr/local Under the original slink, *ALL* of this functions properly! My new (2.2.19) kernel properly recognizes everything *except* /dev/hdb1: ``Checking all file systems . . . Parallelizing fsck version 1.12 (9-Jul-98) fsck.ext2: Operation not supported by devices while trying to open /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdb1: The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem ...'' When I do this: e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/hdb1 I get this: ``The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem ...'' I've varied several variables in .config to no avail ;< What do you think? -- Best Regards, mds mds resource 888.250.3987 Dare to fix things before they break . . .
