Re: [CentOS] custom kernel cant find label /

I installed centos 4.6 on a USB thumbdrive. It installed and booted after install.

I then put a custom kernel on, build it as I should, on rebooting and selecting my kernel to load from grub I it starts up and all and the last error I get is:

label / not found.

What went wrong?

I'd guess your boot line has something like "root=LABEL=/" and you dont have a filesystem which is marked as label = /

To start, you could either label a filesystem as '/' or, you can just change that root= line to point at a real filesystem.

Also, I can see you are still doing your old "ask on the list rather than actually work out what the problem is" trick :/
