sarge + 2.6.12 kernel panic
Just installed sarge, got fresh kernel sources for 2.6.12, used an oldconfig
from a previously successful 2.6.11 kernel, and compiled. Unfortunately when
I tried to boot that kernel I got this:
attempt to access beyond end of device
hda2: rw=16, want=8, limit=2
kernel panic - not syncing: I/O error reading memory image
I accepted the default sarge partitioning scheme for a desktop machine, so /
is on hda1, and hda2 is an extended partition containing logical partitions
hda5 and hda6 (I wonder why those numbers?).
I have found some references to this issue but they're a little over my head.
The default kernel boots fine, and there are few significant differences in
the configs., that I can see anyway.
Does anyone know about this issue, or how to fix it?
Please CC me.
Thanks,
John
