I have a problem.
I installed FC3 on a Dell Optiplex GX 280 and everything works correcly. Now I use yum to update all packages (including the latest kernel). After updating I reboot and let grub select the newest kernel.
After it starts I get the next error:
mkrootdev :label /1 not found mount: error 2 mounting ext3 mount error 2 mounting none switchroot : mount failed: 22 umount /initrd/devfailed : 2 kernel panic - notsysncing: attempted to kill init.
I need to use the power down button to shutdown the computer.
I tried kernel Fedora Core (2.6.10-1.741-FC3smp) and Fedora Core (2.6.10-1.760_FC3smp) but both kernels gives the above errors.
When I use the pre-installed kernel (out of the box) Fedora Core (2.69-1.667smp) kernel everything works alright.
I googled but I can't find anything to solve this problem.
Can anybody help?
There may have been an error creating the initial ramdisk for your new kernels when they were installed. See if mkinitrd reports any problems:
# mv /boot/initrd-2.6.10-1.741_FC3.img /boot/initrd-2.6.10-1.741_FC3.old # mkinitrd -v /boot/initrd-2.6.10-1.741_FC3.img 2.6.10-1.741_FC3
If that looks to work OK, try booting into the 2.6.10-1.741_FC3 kernel again.
