After a full day of setting this up, Finally got it now to get all my preefials out and see if I can get the full use of this OS
Thank you
I want to first say thanks for a great newbie Linux, but after trying it from the CD, I wanted to put it on my HD. Everything installed I thought and would start at reboot no problem, Worng!!!! when it start to load at Reboot, it stopped at "kernel panic-VFS Unable to mount root fs on 03:42 and I could use my keyboard. If anyone knows how to fix this. I would apperciate the help. I am still a newbie to linux

Perhaps you could provide some details on how you got it set up?Originally Posted by Cronos55
I had the same problem recently and actually it was due to the fact that my harddisk filesystem was ntfs and I had not included it in the kernel.
So to resolve the problem you just have to boot from the cdrom,
mount hdax /mnt/hdax (where hdax is your partition containing knoppix)
chroot /mnt/hdax (to go on your system)
and rebuild your kernel properly (in the filsystem options check the right box= ntfs, ext2fs, ext3fs.......)
and that's it!
Here is what I've found on ibiblio.org. It might be the solution to this problem??
Some Boards apparently don't pass the proper memory size to the
linux-kernel. It may cause the message "Panic: cannot mount root file
system" and the system hangs. Use "knoppix mem=128M" to solve that
problem if your system has 128MByte memory for example (caution:
you MUST use a capital "M" here).
