Ok first of i hope I'm posting this in the correct section and if I'm not please don't flame me, I'm a super n00b. Well the title pretty much says it all, when i try to install IDeneb 1.4 on my computer booting with -v i always get "waiting on root device". That's pretty much all i can tell you because like I said I'm very new to this, i hope this will be an easy problem to solve and to whoever does eventually help me I will forever be in your debt.
