Hi there, has anyone seen this yet?

I am getting kernel panics on boot. I flashed with latest flash, and gunzip'd the tar file and extracted it to the CF card.

Im getting:
Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:01.

anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Jack.

it depends on the CF-card.
I have had the same trouble with a card.
As workaround i formatted the CF-card in my camera ( i didn't find a way to to that under linux).
After that i use cfdisk to make a linux partition and mke2fs for a linux filesystem.

Yes, this is exactly what I did wrong.

I didn't format it as partition 1, i formated the entire card as a single partition.

You need to fdisk -> n, p, 1, w. then mke2fs the card.

Boom, it works perfect now
