That appears to be it. Someone compiled a bare-bones kernel for me
that managed to get past this problem. I don't think some of the
other options were the same though, because after booting, it gave
me:
RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0
VFS: Mounted root (minix filesystem).
VFS: Cannot open root device 03:41
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:41
It looks like it might be trying to mount the root on "", but how it
got that, I don't know.
Any suggestions? If possible, I'd like to keep the standard kernel
and just tell it to skip probing for SCSI devices, since I know that's
the problem now.
