Description Michael McLagan 2002-02-20 18:52:57 UTC
Description of Problem:

After bug #60134, I booted the system with a rescue cd I made.  I moved the boot directory
to '/blah', symlinked boot to boot0, mounted sda1 & sdb1 as boot0 and boot1, copied all
files from /blah (cp -a blah boot0).  I ran "lilo -r ." and rebooted.  The system recognised lilo
but fails with the above kernel panic.  I did not change the lilo.conf from the created one.

I tried changing the lilo.conf file to boot=/dev/sda (i have 11 other systems like that) and ran
lilo with 'lilo -r ." again.  Rebooted, same error -- No init found.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2002-02-20 19:35:43 UTC
Er... bugzilla ate that.

Do you have an initrd line in your lilo.conf?

Comment 3 Michael McLagan 2002-02-20 20:37:51 UTC
Yes, I deleted the message line.

prompt
boot=/dev/md0
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
vga=ext

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.7-10
	label=linux
	initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.7-10.img
	read-only
	root=/dev/md0

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2002-02-25 17:23:34 UTC
Is the SCSI driver getting properly loaded from the initrd?
