I just finished a stage 3 install of gentoo for x86_64. I am having some trouble configuring grub. The kernel starts to boot and I get the following error message: VFS: Cannot open root device "sda3" or unknown block(0,0) Please append a correct "root" boot option Kernel panic-not syncing:VFS:unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) My grub.conf is as follows: default 0 timeout 30 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title=Gentoo Linux 2.6.13 root (hd0,0) kernel /kernel-2.6.13-gentoo-r6 root=/dev/sda3 /dev/sda3 is my root partition, it is a SATA drive Any idea what is going on?
