Non Booting 64bit Kernel

December 18th, 2009

In an attempt to fix the slow booting problem I have with Fedora 12 running in a virtual machine I decided to compile the latest stable kernel, 2.6.32.

Compiling went fine but I cannot get it to boot as it hangs at the line ‘Creating initial device nodes’. There’s plenty of people with the same problem it seems, but no solution that works for me. I’ve compiled many kernels before and never had a booting problem so this is pretty annoying, maybe it’s because it’s the first 64bit kernel I’ve tried compiling.
