Topic: Gparted Live cd problem

Hello,

I want to run Gparted, but I can't succeed.

It begins to load, until the screen: GParted LiveCD/USB Extra Boot Options.

there I tried a few things, of course "Skip extra boot options"
then press OK.

then I have the message:

No GParted LiveCD found!!!
Kernel panic - not syncing; attempted to kill init!


what could I do?


best regards,

Laurent.

Hello Larry,

Thanks for your answer.

It doesn't work either:

It does several attempt to mount media (sda, sda1, etc... sdb, etc...
and says cannot find CD to boot, something else needed

then I can choose keymap and language

and I have the following message:

Determining root device...
the root block device is unspecified or not detected

please specify a device to boot, or "shell" for a shell...



Could it be a bios bad tuning, or my DVD reader is too new (a samsung SH182)...



Best regards,

Laurent.

Re: Gparted Live cd problem

could that solve my problem?

It seems not since there's only support for a new raid thing added...


Best regards,
