Seeking advice because slackware bit my ass (justified)
by Slackpack from LinuxQuestions.org on (#54PXS)
Thanks for visiting. I committed several mistakes outlined in the following:
A failure in the kernel I compiled because I wanted the bfq scheduler instead of the mq-deadline one. So said attempt at compiling it led me to this:
VFAT missing/unknown by mount (need it for elilo)
Restarted into .iso
Chroot /mnt (where I mounted everything Slackware related)
Thought running mkinitrd -k 5.4.46 + plus modules and such, generated by the .sh in /usr/share/mkinitrd was a good idea.
Rebooted.
So now it wants to mount my luks partition in /mnt. /proc, /sys and /dev were missing as the boot log stated.
How can I fix this? Or would it be better to setup everything from scratch?
