Boot Problem with Blue Onyx - "VolGroup00/root unknown
I recently downloaded and installed BO dated 6/7/11 (the date when I installed the latest BO)
The install went fine. No errors indicated.
When I rebooted I get this message;
-------------------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- -------
VFS: Cannot open root device "VolGroup00/root" or unknown-block(0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic - not syncing
-------------------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- -------
The Dell Dimension 2400 uses standard IDE drives --- not SATA type drives.
I changed the drive to be master instead of cable select. The drive is on the IDE0 controller.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
