PostPosted: Mon Apr 14, 2014 6:32 pm    Post subject: [SOLVED] new build-> KERNEL PANIC VFS cant mount root Reply with quote

Hey all,
Ive been trying to spin up a new system for a few weeks now and im at the end of my rope. Ive tried so many different times to generate a kernel that would boot my system and i havent had any success yet. My latest try was to load off the end of the world dvd, chroot in, and make localmodconfig because i heard that it essentially pipes lsmod into your kernel config, but i still get a panic. Can somebody take a sec to help me?

here is the error:
Code:

[ 0.822888] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)


here are as many details about what ive configured as i can think you might be interested in:

nosenseofhumor1,

How did you configure and build your kernel ?
Do you expect to use an initrd ?

Your unknown-block(0,0) error means that the kernel cannot see your HDD.

wgetpaste is your friend for long posts lixe your .config that won't fit into a forums post.

hey neddy
sorry ill use wgetpaste in the future.

I used make localmodconfig then make && make modules_install
i copied bzimage to boot and ran grub2-makeconfig

yeah i think i wanted to use initrd... i didnt want to use systemd if thats the other option. (i did try this first and it crashed and burned about 12 times before i gave up on it completely)

nosenseofhumor1,

An initrd is a temporary root filesystem that is loaded by the boot loader.
Its not related to your choice of init system.

The alternative to using an initrd is to build everything needed to mount the root filesystem into the kernel.

You have done neither of those things.

Your root partition is otn a HDD attached to one of the following devices but we don't know which one
Code:
00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset 4 port SATA IDE Controller (rev 06)
00:1f.5 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset 2 port SATA IDE Controller (rev 06)
01:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 2208 [Thunderbolt] (rev 05)
03:00.0 IDE interface: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88SE6121 SATA II / PATA Controller (rev b2)
09:00.0 IDE interface: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Device 914d (rev 10)
os best enable them all.

Your kernel has
Code:

#
# Partition Types
#
CONFIG_PARTITION_ADVANCED=y
CONFIG_MSDOS_PARTITION=y
CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION=y

CONFIG_HAVE_IDE=y
# CONFIG_IDE is not set


# SCSI device support
#
CONFIG_SCSI_MOD=y
CONFIG_RAID_ATTRS=m
CONFIG_SCSI=y
CONFIG_SCSI_DMA=y
CONFIG_SCSI_TGT=m
CONFIG_SCSI_NETLINK=y
CONFIG_SCSI_PROC_FS=y

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y
CONFIG_SCSI_LOWLEVEL=y


So far so good but

Code:
CONFIG_MEGARAID_SAS=m
that looks like the driver for your 01:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 2208 [Thunderbolt] (rev 05).
If so, its a module, so its located in /lib/modules/ which cannot be read until root is mounted. Thats a problem if you need it to read the root filesystem, where /lib/modules is stored.

Code:
CONFIG_ATA=m
so all your SATA and PATA drivers are also modules. Thats game over. your kernel has no way to read any hard drives.
If you want to use modules like this you must provide a initrd that has the modules so that they can be loaded before the HDD con be read.
The alternative is to use
Code:
make menuconfig
to change these options and a few others to <*>

Code:
CONFIG_SATA_AHCI=m
CONFIG_SATA_AHCI_PLATFORM=m
CONFIG_ATA_PIIX=m
CONFIG_PATA_MARVELL=m


Would be good.
You will also need to set <*> on your root filesystem driver.
Code:
CONFIG_EXT2_FS=y
CONFIG_EXT4_FS=y
looks good already

Rebuild and reinstall your kernel.
