All,
How do I get my ELF kernel to boot. I was able to install it OK, and I
told it to load "/boot/loader" at the prompt, but the kernel loaded and then
went into a panic when it couldn't mount the root partition. Can anybody
send me some simple instructions on how to boot the ELF kernel?
Thank you in advance,
Tom Veldhouse
