Also, some googling around found this 
( <a  rel="nofollow" href="http://linuxdevices.com/articles/AT5793467888.html";>http://linuxdevices.com/articles/AT5793467888.html</a> ) which might be
helpful. I note with interest that it hints about changes to /etc/fstab.
It looks like you might not be getting that far though.

&gt; Hey, I am currently running a 2.4.21-0.16mm kernel, and I'm using Mandrake. 
&gt; I am trying to move to a 2.6.8.1 Kernel. I have compiled it and installed 
&gt; it; everything compiled perfectly normal as far as I know. Yet, when I tried 
&gt; to boot the new kernel I got a kernel panic (the first of a short series).
&gt; 
&gt; mount: error 19 mounting ext3 flags Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing 
&gt; init= option to Kernel.
&gt; 
&gt; --Then after messing around with the ext3 options in the config, I fixed 
&gt; that problem (well, in better words, &quot;I changed the problem&quot;). No I was 
&gt; getting this problem:
&gt; 
&gt; loading vmlinuz2681EBDA too big
&gt; 
&gt; --I tried to fix that, but couldn't find what to change in the config. I 
&gt; decided to just go ahead and try compiling it with the config from the 
&gt; kernel I am currently using. I now get this message:
&gt; 
&gt; Please append a correct &quot;root=&quot; boot option
&gt; Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (34,1)
&gt; 
&gt; I get that message only when booting using grub. When I use lilo it says 
&gt; something like &quot;loading linux...&quot; and stays that way.
&gt; 
&gt; Any help would be appreciated. I am eventually going to install an echo 
&gt; layla24 multi-track recorder, but I wanted to first update my kernel.
