Good Afternoon, I installed kernel-smp-2.6.18-1.2200 today and rebooted my computer. I got a kernel panic pretty fast in the boot process. I have 3 drives in my system. md0 is a RAID 1 /boot partition formatted ext3 of appr. 1GB on hda and hdc. I have a 1GB swap partition on hdc. The remainder of the space on all three drives is dedicated to md1 a RAID 5 partition formatted ext3 of appr. 450GB. hdb is a DVD-ROM/CD-RW. The system boots normally with kernel-smp-2.6.17-1.2187 The error message booting with kernel-smp-2.6.18-1.2200 is (and this is typed by hand since it was the quickest manner I had to capture the data; tried to be absolutely accurate as possible, however there may be a slight error or two...): Booting 'Fedora Core (2.6.18-1.2200.fc5smp) root (hd0,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0xfd kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.18.200.fc5smp ro root=/dev/md1 rhgb quiet [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1e00, size=0x1b5ff2] initrd /initrd-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5smp.img [2Linux-initrd @ 0x37eea000, 0x105ceb bytes] Uncompressing Linux...

And that's all she wrote. Any ideas?
I don't know if its going to shed much light, but you might want to remove 'rhgb quiet' from your grub.conf to see if there's any additional output. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L. Friedman netllama@xxxxxxxxx LlamaLand http://netllama.linux-sxs.org
