modules

Well, i tried, i tried to make my kernel work by editing the config.
but i did something wrong
coz now the computer starts but when i do lsmod i get nothing exept the
"modules used by" etc
So i tried to compile a new, but it wont find root..
i had /dev/drives/drive0/part6 on the other one so i tried the same, didnt work
then i tried LABEL=ARCH , didnt work. Now I have no idea how to do.

Re: modules

A bit difficult to work out what you're doing but:

1) "i tried to make my kernel work by editing the config"

What wasn't working?

2) You can make a new kernel, which route are you following in:

Re: modules

It didnt load any modules, so i thought it was the kernel...

make menuconfig
make -s clean bzImage modules modules_install install
But what i think is weird is that the kernel seems to work but it wont find the root partition.

Re: modules

Automatic module loading is done by hotplug. To enable it add "hotplug" to DAEMONS in rc.conf.

Re: modules

OK, have you got a separate /boot partition? If you compiled the file system for the root partition as a module, change it to be compiled as part of the kernel.
