It worked! Can I know the reasoning behind it?
But there's another error now:
Cannot open root device "VolGroup00/logVol00"
Please append...
Kernel Panic - not syncing

i am not sure how to set the root parameter as well. Any hints?
Thanks!

change the parameter as

disk = [ "phy:/dev/sda2, sda, w" ]

or

disk = [ "phy:/dev/sda2, hda, w" ]

it will start working

I am setting the disk parameters as:
disk = [ "phy:/dev/sda2, sda2, w" ]
in the config file

and getting the following error:
Unable to find number for device (sda2)

What could be causing the problem?
If I use "ls -l sda2" in /dev, I get the major and minor device numbers as 8, 1

Please enlighten.
