I compiled ovzkernel-2.6.8-022stab061.1 using kernel-2.6.8-022stab061-i686.config.ovz as .config in Fedora 3 with gcc version 3.4.2. I am using grub.
The kernel was successfully build also generated initrd and added it in grub.conf.
During this boot process everything went fine but gave a warning message ... certainly not a kernel panic.
The warning message...
VFS-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode..
Freeing unused kernel memory: 332k freed.
Warning: Unable to open an initial console
The Boot process stop and no progress further.
I got some hints from several forum to add console option during kernel boot i.e console=ttys0 or console=tty0 but no luck.
I tried to boot without initrd but the same problem.
What could be the problem? I had compiled several vanilla kernel in the same box but has not face such problem before.
Any hints or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
TIA
