Message-ID: <442C9885.8000703@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello everybody :
I know maybe my question is just a piece of cake for you , but
I have struggled with it for 4 days , and I didn't get any answer from
the google and the archive .
So I came here !

And my problem is that :
I use VMware , and install gentoo linux on the vm which hold a scsi disk
. I compile the linux kernel with scsi support in the kernel self , but
when boot up the kernel panic with the bellow message :
VFS: Cannot open root device "803" or unkonw-block(8,3)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option

But I have a line in my lilo.conf : root=/dev/sda3

I have recompile the kernel for many times , but it panic everytime .

Thanks in advance !

Best Regard !
