I had the kernel configure script load in my existing configuration file for my fc3 kernel to help me upgrade and built speakup and dectalk express in the kernel as well ans ext2 and ext3. No initrd image because none is needed. I installed the modules then editted grub.conf changing the file name to the new kernel's name but removing the initrd line. My new kernel boots just fine but them I get the error Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown -block(0,0) I have the fedora core 3 4 cd set from cheapbypes so how can I fix the problem with out having to reinstall all over again? bye My web page is at http://www.nickgawronski.com
