Thing is I can't get into a terminal to use APT, it freezes right after this error:-(.

Correction.... HAD ;) I found that the 2.6 pre-compiled debian kernel is using ext3, reiser and others fs as modules. I did : # apt-get install kernel-image.2.6XXX # apt-get install kernel-source.2.6XXX # apt-get install kernel-tree.2.6XXX The last "apt-get" I think its no necessary. note the XXX ! please change to your kernel variant. My is 686! Then : cd /usr/src # tar xjf kernel-source-2.6XXX # cp /boot/config-2.6* kernel-source-2.6XXX/.config # cd kernel-source-2.6XXX # make menuconfig Configured to use ext3, xfs and reiserfs not as modules. Save and quit the menu. # make-kpkg --initrd --us --uc kernel_image # dpkg -i kernel-image-2.6_10.00.Custom_iXXX.deb after all, I remove the lilo.conf and generate another as I don´t realy care about lilo # rm /etc/lilo.conf # liloconfig # reboot Good luck Erico Schuch Morgan Walker escreveu: Hey guys, After updating to 2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp on my Sun X4100 I rebooted and got the following error: VFS: Cannot open root device md0 or unknown-block(0,0) Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) And this is where it will stop during the boot process. I am running a RAID1 on this machine. When the screen comes up to choose which kernel I want to boot, I press "e" to edit the grub/menu.list, but all looks well. Here is what I have: root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp root=/dev/md0 ro initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp savedefault I'm stumped, what options do I have?
