moved drive to raid card
My knoppix was installed on the second drive of a two hard drive system. I use Boot Magic (from Partition Magic) to have a dual booting system. LILO always showed up after I chose the Linux boot, don't know why, but when the linux option was chosen, it booted into Linux. I moved the drive IDE cable to a 133 RAID card. Windows boots fine, but when I choose linux from Boot Magic, LILO shows up, when the linux option is chosen, the boot sequence starts, but then I get a "Panic" and it cannot mount the root.
What do I have to do to fix this?

I have run into a similar situation on both Linux & windows 2k. My guess is that the system can reach LILO and can also reach the kernel. However the kernel goes to mount the / partition and it fails to mount it because the driver for the 133raid card is on that / partition. I have been able to resolve this by compiling the 133raid card driver into the kernel as opposed to it being a loadable module.
I hope this helps.
