You have loaded a kernel, but either the root device doesn't exist, or the required drivers are missing.
If the root device doesn't exist : occasionally, the order of disks/controllers can change, but um;ess your host system was running a very old kernel, I don't think that is likely. A possibility is that you didn't install udev [ if so, /sbin/udevadm will not exist in your LFS system ]. For drivers, you need to compile-in (*not* as modules) the filesystem and the hardware drivers for whatever disk controllers are in your machine. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
