I'm trying to compile a new kernel for my 7.2 machine. I simply want to use
the existing 2.4.7 kernel and recompile to tighten it up.  I'm getting the
following message:

/lib/ext3.o (multiple journaling errors) then
--- Begin Error ---
Error /bin/insmod exited abnormally
Mounting /proc filesystem
Creating root device
Mounting root filesystem
Mount: Error 19 mounting ext3
pivotroot: pivot_root(/sysroot,/sysroot/initrd) failed: 2
Freeing unused kernel memory: 200k freed
kernel panic: no init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.
-- End Error --

I'm still using LILO. Don't have time to learn GRUB right now. Here's the
snippet from lilo.conf

--Begin Lilo.conf --
prompt
timeout=50
default=linux
boot=/dev/hda5
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
message=/boot/message
lba32

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.7-10
	label=rhlinux
	initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.7-10.img
	read-only
	root=/dev/hda7
	append="hdd=ide-scsi"

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.7-rv
	label=linux
	initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.7-10.img
	read-only
	root=/dev/hda7
	append="hdd=ide-scsi"

---end lilo.conf ---

Any help?
