Sheevaplug with new kernel 2.6.39



Hi All,
I tried to compile and upgraded my Sheevaplug from kernel 2.6.38 to 2.6.39 with my own compiled kernel, however I always got the mount root problem as below.

This is a part of uBoot messages before kernel panic and hang, my SheevaPlug boots from USB normally with kernel 2.6.38 (I tried to compile the kernel 2.6.39 many times, the last time I used kirkwood_defconfig without changes as my kernel configuration but it doesn't work).

========================================
usb 1-1: new high speed USB device number 2 using orion-ehci
ata2: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl F300)
Root-NFS: no NFS server address
VFS: Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy.
VFS: Cannot open root device "(null)" or unknown-block(2,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:
1f00            1024 mtdblock0  (driver?)
1f01            4096 mtdblock1  (driver?)
1f02          519168 mtdblock2  (driver?)

======================================

I don't use the mtd* for booting anymore, I used Martin's tutorial and have Sheevaplug boot from USB instead.

Any help is appreciated.

Sorry for my English.

Thanks and rgds,
H.
