Greetings all,
I have some odd things happen when I try to boot 2.4.0test5pre3.
First, I can't boot into a normal run level. The kernel tries to mount /dev and fails in finding/creating most devices including my harddrives & ttys. So the kernel fails telling me that it can't mount swap or /home since /dev/hda* doesn't exit. I found that if use the long name (something like /dev/ide/ide0/.../partition8) that I can mount /home and it works fine. But still, this doesn't help with the ttys.
I'm starting to get a little nervous since 2.4.0 is going to be released soon and I still can't run normally with it. If anyone can be of assistance, or needs any more information from me, please ask.
My info follows:
Thanks, -Mike
