I have an 8gb CF card installed internally in my Zaurus SL-C3100 and have been unable to install OZ successfully onto my Z. I installed rc2 before I replaced the microdrive.
The install process seems to go fine: Formating, extracting, reboot. After that I get the OZ logo and below it: "Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)" Is something in the kernel looking at the drive's ident? What can I change in the tarball? |

Anyone who EXCHANGED internal microdrive with OTHER storage card NEED to provide 'cardctl ident' output to us so we could add it into ide-cs so kernel will know that yout 'umbaumba' cf card is ide.

My Ridata 8GB Pro 150X Compact Flash Card provides the following cardctl ident:
Socket 1: product info: "SMI VENDOR", "SMI PRODUCT", "" manfid: 0x000a, 0x0000 function: 4 (fixed disk) Should this be a bug report? All that has to be rebuilt is the kernel, correct? I don't want my flash card to be mounted with a journal. After the install will changing fstab be enough to make the partition mount as ext2? |

added proper patch into kernel - will rebuild them and replace OZ 3.5.4.1 ones with it.

I am now trying to remove the journal on /dev/hda1 making it ext2 not ext3. But I cannot remount / readonly even when booted without a gui.
Does this have something to do with the pivot_root? What can I do? |

Hrw, my internal CF returns the following info : product info: "M-Systems", "CF500", "" manfid: 0x000a, 0x0000 function: 4 (fixed disk) I would have thought that your updated kernel (above) would have worked, given it's the same manfidm but I get the same error as before. Any chance you could have a look? Thanks very much! I. |
