I compiled the 1.3.85 kernel today and I can no longer boot any linux kernel.
In the config I did, by mistake, include some CD-ROM stuff I shouldn't have.
I do not have any CD-ROM device at all, to bad.
When booting (several) linux 1.3.x kernel i get:
Unable to identify CD-ROM format.
Warning: dev(04:c1) tty->count(2) != fd's(17) in tty_open
Warning: dev(04:c1) tty->count(2) != fd's(17) in release_dev
Warning: dev(04:c1) tty->count(2) != fd's(17) in tty_open
Warning: dev(04:c1) tty->count(2) != fd's(17) in release_dev
and so on. Actually, several different numbers show up, not just 17.
When booting the 1.2.13 kernel I have I get:
Unable to identify CD-ROM format.
end_request: I/O error, dev 2100, sector 64
isofs_read_super: bread failed, dev 0x2100
iso_blknum 16
*and* I can't issue a shutdown (ctrl-alt-delete).
What can I do to be able to boot again?
I have a symbolic link /usr/src/linux -> /usr/src/linux-1.3.85. Maybe, if I
could delete this link and make a new one /usr/src/linux ->
/usr/src/linux-1.3.80 and try booting again it would jump off. But how can I
do such a thing when I can't boot *any* linux kernel?
Well, if you have *any* suggestions, please let me know. I really hate to
use WfW...
TIA
