Hi.
I installed a Debian lenny to a usb-hdd(first partition).I plugged it into the first USB Slot of my PS2.But i cant guess the device path and name.i tried the /dev/hd(a,b,c,d,e) and /dev/sd(a,b...),but isn't worked.I booted and get ever this error: 'Please append the correct "root=" boot option' and kernel panic. :/

The Question is:
How to can i locate device before boot like in GRUB or LILO,or get anything minimal bash,or give other way to acces device (UUID,etc).

Thanks for the help,and sorry for my english.

This is a forum for development on the PS2. PS2-Linux non-development questions typically are asked on another forum. Here's a good one - http://psx-scene.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=167

The PS2-Linux threads you see here involve code debugging and bug reports for kernelloader by Mega Man which is NOT a PS2-Linux program (it is a PS2-Native .ELF).

Thanks!
