Hi!
I downloaded 2.6.10 from kernel.org,compiled it and made the new links
in lilo.conf
when I try to boot it I get the following problem:

VFS:Cannot open root device "306" or unknown-block(3,6)

Please append a correct "root" boot option

Kernel panic-not syncing:VFS:unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(3,6)

I know the path for root is good in lilo(root=/dev/hda6)


Diff your config with the one from the Debian kernel. You are obviously missing
some kernel code to boot. Probably drivers for your disk.

Mount the initrd from the debian kernel and see what modules are listed in the
loadmodules file and make sure you:

1) Have them compiled into the kernel
2) Use a ramdisk
