    Help Please!!!
    Anyone is having problems with custom kernels?
    I'm using nitro-sources 2.6.9-3 with support for reiser4 that I widely use.
    The first time I rebooted in FC3 with the usual kernel(the one I was using
    on FC2) I got the message "Unable to open initial console"
    To make it working I had to
    -enable devfs=mount at grub kernel line
    -disable selinux=0 at grub kernel line
    ...I also did mkinitrd as suggested

    But many things aren't working properly with devfs enabled

    Any suggestion please??
