I eventually got 2157 to boot by editing the init script in the initrd

to be able to access, the solution isn't as simple. My bugzillas with
more details about what I did are:

Thanks Tom. In this case FC5 is the only OS on the box, and we're booting
from the raid array. Apparently Linux kernel 2.6.17.7 has just been
released. This is a production box (one of our DNS servers) so rather
than fool around with 2.6.17-1.2157_FC5smp any more I'll wait for the new
kernel to show up in yum and see what happens with that.
