My kernel doesn't mount the boot-filesystem

["F. Kappen" <kappen@tfh-berlin.de>]

Hi all,

I need your precious help. Four weeks ago I compiled a new kernel with
support for the parallel port  of my sun ultra1. I want to use this
machine as a print server.

Since then  I'm struggling with the kernel because it is not willing to
mount the /dev/sdb1-filesystem at boot-time (please see my logfile of
the boot process
http://www.tfh-berlin.de/~kappen/Linux/1_boot_2.4.27-frd1.1.lis  )
I guess that this has to do with the scsi-modules sd_mod and sr_mod that
are expected to exist, but can't be loaded, because I compiled them into
the kernel ( please see my kernel config file
http://www.tfh-berlin.de/~kappen/Linux/4_config-2.4.27-frd1.1.lis  ) .
I also built a kernel with sd_mod and sr_mod as modules, but this
doesn't work either.

I don't know what am I doing wrong and appreciate any help or advice.

Thank you very much
Friedhelm
