Title: Unable to boot Endian after removal of CD-ROM post-installation Post by: defrag on Tuesday 03 March 2009, 07:12:55 am I have a PC with no CD-ROM; I hooked up a CD-ROM to install Endian. Everything goes well, I get Endian setup and configured. Once all the install is complete I remove the CD-ROM and reboot the server.
After removal of the CD-ROM I am unable to load Endian. I get error message similar to this Mounting tmpfs on /dev mounting root filesystem with flags noatime mount: error 6 mounting ext3 flags noatime well, retrying without the option flags mount: error 6 mounting ext3 well, retrying read-only without any flag mount: error 6 mounting ext3 Error opening /dev/console!!!! 2 switchroot: mount failed: 22 Kernel panic -not syncing attempting to kill init Rebooting in 10 seconds I am not very familar with Linux; Obviously the problem has to do with the CDROM being removed as when I reattach it Endian boots up fine Any ideas how to fix this? note: the harddrive is a SATA drive and the CDROM is IDE Title: Re: Unable to boot Endian after removal of CD-ROM post-installation Post by: defrag on Wednesday 04 March 2009, 05:41:20 am Well I went out and purchased a USB CD-ROM; hooked that up and installed it that way; This seems to have done the trick.
Not the best answer but still a work-around if anyone else runs into this issue.

Ideally what you experienced shouldn't be a problem because of how an appliance would usually run.
