I am fairly new to the mailing list but have been playing around with kernels for awhile. I have successfully built 2.4 and 2.6 kernels on different types of remote servers but this latest problem has me stumped. The config I am using was working fine under 2.6.9 but 2.6.10 and 2.6.11 both are not able to boot up. I have posted the config at http://eth0.us/?q=node/39 if anybody is interested to look. On boot I get the cannot mount /dev/sda3 every single time when trying with a kernel above 2.6.9. I have tried with modules and without module support. The problem comes from the following SCSI card in a dell poweredge server: SCSI storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic 53c1030 PCI-X Fusion-MPT Dual Ultra320 SCSI (rev 07) The driver that the 2.4 kernel uses is: alias scsi_hostadapter mptscsih Does anybody have any idea why this is happening or what can be done to get it to boot? I have tried to compile it on a many different servers with the same results. I have also asked a few people and they have not been able to get it working. Any ideas or pointers in the right direction are GREATLY appreciated! I have searched google but so far have found nothing useful. -- Best regards, John Wigle "eth00" http://eth0.us -- Best regards, John Wigle "eth00" http://eth0.us
