I’m Trying To Run Gentoo Linux On Parallels, And The Root File System Won’t Mount On Boot. What Is Wrong?
Author: admin // Category: LinuxThe kernel loads, but I get this error message after a second or two.
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
Then the system halts. My /etc/fstab is fine (I think), and I’m only using ext2 and ext3 file syetems (both of which I installed support for in the kernel, not as modules).
I know it has been done, and it should be the same for all Parallels machines. I’m running the 3036 Beta version.

Do you have drivers for your hard drive controller installed in the kernel/modules? Is the module enabled?
