Strange problems when upgrading kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello friends,

tonight I've decided to upgrade my kernel because of the security issues
recently discovered. I was using 2.4.22.2129.nptl and upgraded to
2.4.2140.nptl - And installed 2.6.1 also - all via synaptic.

After the boot, the system would not boot anymore, with 2.4.22.2140 or
2.6.1.?? . The message follows:

Loading ext3.o module
Mounting /proc filesystem
Mounting /sysfs
Mount: error 19 mounting sysfs
Creating block devices
VFS: Cannot open root device "LABEL=/" or 00:00
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 00:00

I've changed /etc/grub.conf so the line now is
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2140.nptl ro root=/dev/hda2 hdc=ide-scsi rhgb

which means I've changed from "LABEL=/" to /dev/hda2, and now it boots,
but... I see this on boot:

EXT2-fs warning (device ide0(3,2)): ext2_read_super: mounting ext3
filesystem as ext2


Sound is gone also. I was using ALSA, but now this happens:

[root@casa archives]# modprobe snd-via82xx;modprobe snd-pcm-oss;modprobe
snd-mixer-oss;modprobe snd-seq-oss

/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2140.nptl/kernel/sound/snd.o: insmod snd-seq-oss
failed

And the machine became noticeably slower.

Can someone help me understand what the h&ll happened here?
