[SOLVED] Some program might be trying access hardware directly

Hi all

I've been three days trying to install Gentoo.

I installed it maybe 10 times or more

Always these message shows in the booting :

Some program might be trying access hardware directly

(There is an attached image )

Any idea ?

First error is that matters.

The picture is not clear enough to see, is it unknown-block(8,3) ?

I'm sorry I didn't realize that photo has been shrinked

I have to cut the URL :-)

(8,3) is sda3, kernel is accessing it, this means your kernel has HDD controller support. Still, it cannot mount root filesystem.

Firstly, is sda3 your root partition?
Secondly, has it ext3 filesystem?

:banana:

Finally

I fix it !

The problem was in grub :

I've changed this line in grub.conf :

Code:

---

kernel /boot/kernel root=/dev/sda3

---

and it's fix !!

Thanks friend :)
