hedmo,
ext2 is no longer set to on in the kernel by default, so you have made and installed a kernel that can no longer mount your /boot.
In your currently running kernel ...
Go into
Select Second Extended Filesystem as <M>
Save the changes
Run Code: | make modules && make modules_install |
This will give you ext2 support as a module - no reboot required
Code: | modprobe ext2
mount /boot |
Will now work.
When you upgrade your kernel, you can set Second Extended Filesystem as <*>, since you will be using the old kernel to install the new one. _________________ Regards,
