I attempted the upgrade with core 4 and the unofficial core 4.1. With Core

Please append a correct "root=" boot option

They both seem to have a problem with the megaraid card. If it makes a
difference in diagnosing things the server is a Supermicro, not a
Visionman, as I first stated.
Any way to fix this?
I'm getting this same error with an intel915 board. See my thread Fedora Core 4 Kernel Panic. I haven't found a solution, but I did get that same error message last night. I have a windows partition on my drive, so I can't just zero the drive and try a new install. Actually maybe I'll ghost the partition and then try zeroing the drive.
