Sorry for the premature sent, I'm fighting with quartz-wm (I should really install WindowMaker...).

It possibly used to work in the DevFS era. Just > skip > that (or use rootfs=/dev/ubd0). I tried both with root=/dev/ubd0 and root=/dev/ubd/0. I had the impression that rootfs= was to be given a _directory_ path in the host file system. I added a line to print the parameters to do_mount_root: With rootfs: Kernel command line: mem=128M ubd0=/dev/md0 ubd1=/dev/hdc9 rootfs=/dev/ubd0 -s root=98:0 ... Couldn't get the block size of "/dev/md0", errno = 13 /dev/ubd/disc1: unknown partition table Initializing stdio console driver VFS: err=-2 <-- do_mount_root(name="/dev/root", p="ext3", flags=0, root_mount_data="unknown-block(\ 98,0)") VFS: Cannot open root device "98:0" or unknown-block(98,0) Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(98,0) with root: Kernel command line: mem=128M ubd0=/dev/md0 ubd1=/dev/hdc9 root=/dev/ubd0 -s ...

So perhaps the problem comes from the unability to get the block size of /dev/md0? $ whoami pjb $ ls -l /dev/md0 /dev/hd[ac]2 brw-rw---- 1 pjb disk 3, 2 2003-03-14 14:07 /dev/hda2 brw-rw---- 1 pjb disk 22, 2 2003-03-14 14:07 /dev/hdc2 brw-rw---- 1 pjb disk 9, 0 2003-03-14 14:07 /dev/md0 -- __Pascal Bourguignon__ http://www.informatimago.com/ This is a signature virus.
