Bug#37212: kernel panic

[henrymar@gpc.peachnet.edu]

Package: boot-floppies
Version: 2.1

architecture: i486
model: Magitronic
memory: 16KB
scsi: not-applicable
cd-rom: no drive installed
network card: not-applicable
pcmcia: not-appkicable

I am installing slink to an IDE HDD: 872 cyl, 8 heads, 125.0 MB.

I formatted the drive and began the bootstrap.

After loadin Linux and decompressing it, the process began to identify my 
hardware.

It stopped with the following message:

Kernel Panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 03:02



Can you help me figure this out?

Previously, I had been able to completely install Debian on this same 
machine.

Thanks.
