Kernel compilation problems
Hello,
recently I bought a Toshiba Portege 3020CT notebook and installed
Debian Potato on it.
It worked.
I installed the kernel-source-2.2.19 package and recompiled the kernel
to support APM and some other things.
It still worked.
Then I wanted to use DHCP, but it didn't work and after reading some
documentation I tried to enable some kernel options (forgot which, but
I was probably too eager and enabled/disabled some other options as
well).
Now the new kernel wouldn't boot. And I haven't got any idea what made
the diffrence (I have tried a lot changes without succes).
During the booting of the new kernel I end up with this error message:
request_module[block-mojor-3]: Root fs not mounted
VFS: Cannot open root device 03:03
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:03
Does anybody have some ideas?
The laptop is not connected to the network at the moment, but it will
be later (this still works) and I will be able to post some log files
if needed.
I still have an old, working kernel so I'm not completely lost.
