I always got this massage after booting panic: cannot mount root and it starts rebooting... I guess this is due to the wrong geometry, I hope I'm right.. If so, anyone help me try to find the right one? I have 'WD Cavier 3100, 1.08 GB -2nd HD' and on BIOS, (C,H,S) setting is 2100 16 63, and at the partition editor I tried (C,H,S) 1024 16 63 and 525 64 63 but got same result.... thanks in advance...
