Greetings-
Using a .config file based on past kernels that have worked fine (posted at
http://perrin.socsci.unc.edu/stuff/config), I am trying to compile kernel
2.6.30 for an amd64 machine and NOT using initrd. The essentials I know of -
sata, ext3, e1000e - are built into the kernel, so I don't think it should
need an initrd, but I'm consistently getting:
kernel panic: no init found. Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0).
Any advice welcome.
Thanks.

Hi,
What does lshw show?
What does lspci show?
You need to make sure you have SATA support installed for your chipset.
I never use initrd myself either.
Justin.
