Title: Installation v2.2rc3 via pxe Post by: manpro on Sunday 18 January 2009, 11:55:00 pm Hi,
since a few days I try to install v2.2rc3 via PXE. I use PXE for a lot of years, but today, I have no idea why it doesn't work. I got the following error message: Quote VFS: Mount root (ext2 filesystem). VFS: Cannot open root device “<NULL>” or unkown-block(8,1) Please append a correct “root=” boot option; here are the available partitions: Kernal panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unkown-block(8,1) The main question is, what is the correct partition? Maybe also, what kind of a partition it is? The content of "/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg" is: Quote default endian-2.2-rc3 label endian-2.2-rc3 kernel /endian-2.2-rc3/vmlinuz append initrd=/endian-2.2-rc3/initrd install=nfs://192.168.143.1/data/pxe/endian-2.2-rc3/ Ok, not a lot, but it must be enough. If I use “root=/dev/ram”, the system boots, until it stopps with a "blue screen". Not from Windows ;-) It is only blue, thats all. Has somebody an advise? Thanks a lot.

Did you resolve the problem with boot via PXE? I have the same bleu screen! :( Title: Re: Installation v2.2rc3 via pxe Post by: manpro on Monday 06 April 2009, 04:55:37 am Hi,
