Kernel booting problem.

Sri, I'm not sure about this part:

root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00

It Should be something like root=/dev/sda1 . I believe that VolGroup00
thing has to do with LVM something I'm not very familiar with but I don't
think the boot process will be able to "understand" LVM at that early
stage.

I might be wrong though.

Hi All,

I compiled my own kernel image with uclibc cross tool chain for x86
i686 arch. I am using grub as boot loader.

these are the following parameters I am giving.

kernel /bzImage ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet init=/sbin/init
initrd /initrd.img  -----> this is cpio image of filesystem structure
with needed modules and lib

When I select at grub options to boot the kernel after reading bzImage
grub proceeds to initrd and stuck at initrd.
There is no output. I searched online and I found other kind of
problems. But this is something different.

Can anyone give some suggestions. Thanks in advance.
