Day 3 of a stalled LFS installation. I am going to try using the legacy grub, as some people have suggested.
Once more, try make mrproper
make LANG=nl_NL LC_ALL= menuconfig
(SCSI device support change all M's to stars. )
make (started 13:18)
This will take a long time.
While I was waiting, I found a website called kernelnewbies.org They mentioned something called cpuinfo, which I installed on my Mandriva platform. One of the things a kernel is supposed to do is talk with the hardware, and I figure I should know a little bit about what is inside my computer.
Re-making did not work. I tried running with my Mandriva legacy GRUB. Still kernel panic, although different unkown-block (0,0) instead of (2,0)

I know this was a while back, but I believe I ran into the same problem. Here was my specific error...
ReplyDeleteVFS: Cannot open root device "hda1" or unknown-block(2,0)
Please append a correct “root=” boot option;
The solution for mine was to change hda to sda in the grub configuration. For some strange reason the lfs live cd kernel mapped my drives as hd*, while my build kernel always mapped them as sd*, even when I tried to compile the legacy ATA drivers.
I also needed to change the /etc/fstab hd* to sd*.
After I booted once grub-config, made a correct boot entry.
