can not boot puppy from hard disk

#1 Post by socialdefect »

hi , i've just installed puppy opera to my hd.
i've edited the grub list

Code: Select all

title		Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-23-386
root		(hd0,0)
kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-386 root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet splash
initrd		/boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386
savedefault
boot

title		Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-23-386 (recovery mode)
root		(hd0,0)
kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-23-386 root=/dev/hda1 ro single
initrd		/boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-23-386
boot

title		Ubuntu, memtest86+
root		(hd0,0)
kernel		/boot/memtest86+.bin 
boot

title           puppy linux 2.0 opera
root            (hd0,2)
kernel          /vmlinuz root=/dev/hda3 ro
initrd          (hd0,2)/initrd.gz
but now when i try to boot it first seems to boot correct , all hardware is detected , the puppy200 file gets loaded into ram , usb drives detected but then i get the warning : unable to open initial console.
kernel panic - not syncing. try passing init=option to kernel.

what have i done wrong????
