I have gone through the gentoo setup and the silo.conf was a little
confusing.Now when it boots I get please append a correct value to
"root=".than kernel panic..

My silo.conf file is as follows

 

partition = 1         
root = /dev/hda1      
timeout = 150          
 
image = /boot/kernel-2.4.24
label = linux

 

I had it set to root = /dev/hda4 but that's mounted as /usr

Also, do I add all the extra partitions created in fdisk ( hda4, hda5, hda6)
to fstab.?

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thx,

Mark Matrafajlo
