Hi,
I have installed a new RH 9 box and Im trying to compile the new 2.6.9 kernel. When compiling with "make bzImage" , "make modules_install" all goes fine. I had only a "Fatal: Cylinder...(1024>1023)..." but I have fixed it with adding "lba32" to the lilo.conf file.
After I fixed that problem I have rebooted and got a kernel panic:
" mount: error 19 mounting ext3
pivotroot: pivotroot(/sysroot .....)...
umount /initrd/proc failed: 2
kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel. "
I have looked in my .config file (2.6.9 directory) and found that all the CONFIG_EXT3_FS, etc are set to YES.
Is there anything else I can do?
Are you booting using initrd? If so, did you generate a new initrd for the new kernel?
Typically, there is a command along the lines of "mkinitrd" to do that. You will have to RTFM on your system for details. On Debian it would be something along the lines of "mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.9 2.6.9" (assuming you did not put extraversion on your kernel).
