As MarloweN@aol.com wrote: > Panic: Cannot mount > root Can you please describe what is happening _above_ the panic message? Which system version did you use? For version 2.0-RELEASE, the floppy disk driver had a bug that caused exactly your symptoms for (at least) any machine that has a NEC 72065B (or compatible) FDC chip. You will find something like fd0: hard error reading ... <no_am> in the messages above the panic. This is fixed in newer versions, e.g. the 2.0-950210-SNAP. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
