After sucessfully installing FreeBSD 2.1.6, I rebooted the system.
Everything is OK, but when it's time to mount the root / partition,
there's a kernel panic.  And then the system reboot itself.

FreeBSD is on sd0s4 partition.  Other partitions, on both scsi
and EIDE drives, resides Linux, FreeSCO & WinNT.

Question:  why can't it mount root / ?


Thanks
