When I boot with genkernel I see a message that the root partition cannot be found. I see these messages : Determing root device Block device 813 is not a valid root device Could not find the root block device in . Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install genkernel 2. reboot the box 3. Actual Results: Box would not boot Expected Results: Box would boot perfect Here my fstab : dev/sdb1 /boot ext2 defaults. noatime 1 2 /dev/sdb2 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sdb3 / jfs noatime 0 1 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto, user 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev, nosuid,noexec 0 0 And here's my lilo.conf: boot = /dev/sdb1 prompt timeout = 50 default=gentoo image=/boot/kernel-genkernel-x86_64-2.6.39-gentoo-r3 label=gentoo read-only append="ro real_root=/dev/sdb3" initrd=/boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-2.6.39-gentoo-r3
