Kernel Panic



Hey guys,

 

After updating to 2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp on my Sun X4100 I rebooted and got the following error:

 

VFS: Cannot open root device md0 or unknown-block(0,0)

Please append a correct “root=” boot option

Kernel Panic – not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)

 

And this is where it will stop during the boot process.  I am running a RAID1 on this machine.  When the screen comes up to choose which kernel I want to boot, I press “e” to edit the grub/menu.list, but all looks well.  Here is what I have:

 

root            (hd0,0)

kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp root=/dev/md0 ro

initrd          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp

savedefault

 

I’m stumped, what options do I have?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Morgan
