BEcause when I'm starting with 2.6 kernel, it's hanging will starting, and when I'm starting with 2.4.22 kernel, only informations about 2.4.22 is show by dmesg ... (If the 2.6 can't mounty the /, maybe it's why it can't write information for dmesg on ?) Here is what I can see on the screen : floppy0: no floppy controllers found RAMDISK driver initialized: 16 RAM disks of 4096K size 1024 blocksize loop: loaded (max 8 devices) 8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.26 eth0: Realtek RTL8139 at 0xe3809f00, 00:08:0d:89:3c:38, IRQ 5 mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1 Firware: 5.9 Sensor: 15 ne absolute packet format Touchpad has extended capability bits -> multifinger detection -> palm detection input: Synaptics TouchPad on isa0060/serio1 serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 input: AT Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0 serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60, 0x64 irq 1 NET: Registred protocol family 2 IP: routing cache hash table of 4096 buckets, 32Kbytes TCP: Hash tables configured (established 32768 bind 32768) NET: Registerd protocol family 1 VFS: Cannont open root device "302" or unknown-block(3,2) Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel panics: VFS: Unable to mount root fr onunknown-block(3,2) That's all. I will try to modify the number of line of the screen in the bis for seeing more information, but I can't promise anythinks ... JMS.
