  that's a pretty common error if you've borked your kernel install.
  It means that either you don't have drivers for your hard disk built in the kernel, or that you don't have drivers for your filesystem built into the kernel.
  Drivers for hard drive, and root fs _must_ be in the kernel, as it's kind of hard to load them from an unmounted partition that you don't know how to talk to.
