Hello everyone, Yesterday I built the kernel-source-2.4.17. All seemed well. I had re-booted a couple times without problems. Today, however, I get the error message "Kernel panic:VFS:unable to mount root fs on 03:03". Two months ago I had converted by fs from ext2 to ext3. I'm wondering what I need to do the get my system back without a re-install, if that's at all possible. Any and all ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks -mk
