I've created a floppy boot disk image of vmlinuz for a Red Hat 4.0 IDE
system. During boot from floppy it gets as far as:
Partition check:
hda: hda1 hda2 hda3
VFS: Cannot open root device 08:03
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:03
The machine boots up fine from hard disk. I've created a similar boot disk
for my SCSI machine and it boots from floppy okay.
Any pointers?
Thanks, Gene
