[linux-help] Need help with Kernel Panic Message!

["gray, jason" <gray_jason@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,
I successfully installed RHAT on my Compaq Proliant 1850 system.  I
recompiled the kernel, and got the following message during boot up:  

kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k block -major- 8
errno = 2 VFS: Cannot open root device
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:01

The previos lines were the last lines during linux boot up, just seconds
after LILO began.  I know I make a mistake tweaking the kernel, but if
anyone might know what the kernel panic message means, I would be very
interested.

Thank you for your help
