2940U2W Status

[Hal (DCI)]

Well Michael,

I'm trying to install a Quantum VikingII using the 2940U2W starting with a
revised image from floppy for 2.0.36 that sees the disk correctly,
controller, Ethernet card and CD-ROM without a hitch.

Proceed to fdisk, then on to installing linux 2.0.35 from CD-ROM, patching
the source up to 2.0.36, relinking linux to /usr/src/2.0.36, copying the
/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/def.config.2.0.36 to /usr/src/linux/.config.
Doing a make menuconfig putting in all the goodies necessary.

Reboot WHAM!! we get:

  VFS: unable to mount fs 08:01

LILO is installed at the MBR, should it be installed at another location?

Should the Hard Dis be re-lowleveled with this controller first? Normally
I don't.

Regards, confused in Florida,

--Hal.
