Hello all,

I recently bought myself a laptop to work with. The laptop cam with XP
Home. When buying the laptop I was planning on installing SuSe Linux 9.2
on it. Yesterday I was busy installing everything on my laptop. But
during the installation procedure, after the reboot, I got the infamous
'kernel panic' message on the screen. My question is how do I get rid of
that?

What has happened. At the supplier Partition Magic was used to decrease
the space XP uses to 15 G. It now uses NTFS. The remaining space I
deviderd over a partition to exchange files between XP and SuSe, a
partition for my mysic (both FAT32), a Swap partition (about 1100 MB, I
have 512 internal memory), and ReiserFS (about 18 G).

My laptop was recognised by SuSe. So I did not expect a problem during
installation. When all software was installed the system rebooted. The
boot screen was shown, with among others the choice for XP and Linux.
After choosing Linux, the system started loading. The loading process
ended with kernel panic.

These are the last entries:
md: autodetecting RAID arrays
md: atorun ...
md: ... autorune DONE
RAMDISK: compressed image found at block 0
VPS: mounted rout (ext 2) file system
Starting mdev
Creating devices
Loading kernel/fs/reiserfs/reserfs.ko
Kernel panic -not syncing:
VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown -block (3.6)

Thanks in advance,
Mac

.... and what happens when you boot with safe mode?
