New iso image + new vmlinuz - TEST 1
- move new vmlinuz(with custom boot logo) to new iso /boot directory
- $ cd /newiso
- $ ./make_iso
- $ reboot
#Failed - kernel panic - syncing : VFS : Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
Google the net and possible problem :
1 - initrd
2 - missing procedure such :
$ make oldconfig
$ make menuconfig
$ make clean
$ make bzImage
$ make modules
$ make modules_install
$ make install
QUOTE FROM REDHAT PAGES
#########"you probably didn't make an initrd or forgot to compile in a key
component you need..."
#########Even if no changes were made to any of the settings, running the make xconfig command (or one of the other methods for kernel configuration) is required before continuing.
#########"make install" in the kernel source tree is a good way to make sure
there is a valid initrd...
STATUS FAILED ON LIVE-CD
