i've encountered the infamous "waiting for root device error." upon checking the wiki, i found the solution

 

"set your bios settings to emulate or compatibility or something like that, NOT native or RAID or AHCI."

 

however, upon browsing the bios throughly, i see no such option. can someone help direct me as to how to set this up? if it helps, i have a Mobile Intel® 915GM/GMS/PM Express chipset.

 

thanks.

eh?
No one can really help you without more data because the BIOS is usually OEM specific (Compaq, HP, Dell etc) and perhaps there is no such setting in your BIOS, period. Perhaps if you just post more information, such as your laptop make, model number, CPU etc, someone with the same setup may be able to help you.
