Kernel 2.6.20 on Amiga 2000

["storm66@club-internet.fr" <storm66@club-internet.fr>]

Hello,

I had a try with a 2.6.20 kernel, the kernel compiles without problems
but won't boot complaining about the root device. I have somme messages
on the screen :

Cannot open root device sdb3 or unknown-block(8,19)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS Unable to mount root fs on unknown
block(8,19)


I saw some messages on init for scsi devices such as

sdb: sense not available
sd 0:0:4:0 rejectiong I/O to offline device
sdb: Write protect is off
sd 0:0:4:0 rejecting I/O to offline device
sdb: asking for cache data failed
sdb: assuming drive cache: write through
sd 0:0:4:0 Attached scsi device disk sdb
......
followed by the same kind messages with sdc and 0:0:6:0
was preceeded by same messages for sda ....

"root" is on sdb3 with a "correct" root=/dev/sdb3 option which
works very well with other kernels before 2.6.20 (eg 2.6.18 ...).

As the keyborad driver is broken since 2.6.18 I can see that the system
is not full dead but reacting to some keyboard events, but I can't send
a proper reboot to access messages with dabug after the reboot.

I saw a message on the list where a 2.6.20 kernel was ok on exactly the
same configuratiog : A2000, Blizzard 060 ...

Any ideas ?
