Hello everybody, This morning I was working normally on my HP PIV PC with FC4. FC has been installed and working without trouble for a couple of months. Hardware has not been modified. I was running KDE and suddenly everything stopped working. Then I rebooted the PC and got the following messages: mkrootdev: label / not found mount: error 2 mounting ext3 ERROR opening /dev/console !!!!: 2 error dup2'ing fd of 0 to 0 error dup2'ing fd of 0 to 1 error dup2'ing fd of 0 to 2 switchroot: mount failed: 22 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! I am im big trouble trying to recover my own workstation and a lot of locally archived email messages :-( I had been googling with any luck. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Pardon my English since it is not my native language. Regards, -- Francisco Neira Basso Administrador de Red Defensoria del Pueblo Lima, Peru -05:00GMT
