[solved] suspend2 and ext3

Is ext3 compiled in the suspend2 kernel ?

Because i get this while booting:

ERROR: root fs cannot be detected. Try using the rootfstype= kernel parameter

when i set rootfstype=ext3 in grub i get:
kinit: Cannot open root dev(0,0)
kinit: init not found!

Any help is needed here smile

Re: [solved] suspend2 and ext3

I can boot my suspend2 kernel (2.6.19-2) from my ext3 root filesystem. Are you sure your root=/dev/XXX i correct i grub/lilo and that you added

MODULES="... ext3 ..."

  to /etc/mkinitcpio.conf?

Nope, everything is compiled as modules.  Hence why we have initramdiscs.

That is not an ext3 problem. It seems your root partition isn't there. Can you give any more details about your menu.lst and when this started happening?

Re: [solved] suspend2 and ext3

Here is the menu.lst:

# (0) Arch Linux
title  Arch Linux Supend2
root   (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26suspend2 root=/dev/hda2 resume2=swap:/dev/hda3 ro
initrd /boot/kernel26suspend2.img

It all happends when i try to boot with suspend2-kernel
with kernel26 it works fine!
