Re: Kernel Panic while booting from 2.6.3

[Urs Schroffeneger <urs-on-debian-list@lampshade.ch>]

Check out that you have the right partition type enabled in Advanced 
partion types, it's a bit hidden in the options tree. (under xconfig 
filesystem->partition types->advanced partition types->pc bios)

For a pc type, it would be the
MSDOS_PARTITION
option. It's absolutely necessary for the kernel to recognize your root 
filesystem, and it's not enabled by default in the 2.6.* config file

I hope this helps
