[WBEL-users] Boot Error after recompile

[Graham Waring]

G'day Ray,

Someone may have already pointed this out and my oppologies for repeating 
this, but looking at your grub.conf, for your new kernel you have put a "-" 
and not "=" in your "hdg=ide-scsi" parameter.  Upon boot, if you can arrow 
down and boot successfully to the original kernel which has the 
"hdg=ide=scsi" parameter then it would be my first suggestion to change the 
"-" to a "=".  Hope it helps.

Cheers
Graham
