Hi, Has anyone managed to get mkCDrec http://mkcdrec.ota.be/project/download.html working under Mandrake 8.2?
I've been trying over the last couple of days to get it up and running and so far I cant create a rescue CD or complete image. Rescue CD fails with Kernel Panic; Uncompressing............................................................... ........................................done. Freeing initrd memory:1212k freed VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem). Journalled Block Device driver loaded SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-8, error = 2 VFS: Cannot open root device "" or 08:05 Please append correct "root=" boot option Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:05 I've run through all the instructions and FAQ's but am getting no were fast. make test gives all OK make (option 1) runs without any errors, but does give Warnings were it cant find certain files/directories but nothing that seems to relate to the core system. I've added the following to /mkcdrec/Config.sh KERNEL_APPEND="mount=devfs" and DEVFS=1 If I don't use these then the rescue CD boot to a prompt but I cant issue and commands and there is a whole sequence of unresolved symbols errors relating to SCSI devices. I'm using the standard Kernel and this has; CONFIG_IDE=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE=y As recommended by the FAQ. IDESCSI is loading as a module and when I look at the mkcdrec.log it copy's; ide_scsi.o scsi_mod.o The only thing that does not match the documentation is CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=32000 (doc says should be 4096 or 8192) Any help appreciated. Thanks Andy
