Description tjloeb 2000-02-26 00:30:50 UTC 
When I try to make a boot disk using mkbootdisk I get the following error,
"Cannot find root partition in /etc/fstab

when I go to /lib/modules to get my kernel version I am given 2.2.12-20
after entering ls

I have tried this command with both a full path and device name and with
just the version number.

could you attach your fstab, please?
