Re: Failed partition check



Robbie, I ran into this also the first time I compiled a 2.2.X kernel.
You need to make sure that IDE/ATA-2 support is compiled into the kernel
(not a module) if you are booting from an IDE hard drive. 

In the kernel config (I use xconfig), that feature is under block
devices.
