I just tried to reboot a fileserver box running fc5, previously with 2.6.17-1.2187 to 2.6.18-1.2239. The kernel paniced remounting the root filesystem. With: XFS: logbuf size for version 1 logs must be 16K or 32K mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as xfs: Invalid argument. My /etc/fstab had: LABEL=/ / xfs logbufs=8,logbsize=64k 1 1 So I changed this to: LABEL=/ / xfs defaults 1 1 which results in the same error, as does: LABEL=/ / xfs logbufs=8,logbsize=32k 1 1 $ xfs_info / meta-data=/dev/root isize=2048 agcount=16, agsize=481950 blks = sectsz=512 data = bsize=4096 blocks=7711200, imaxpct=25 = sunit=0 swidth=0 blks, unwritten=1 naming =version 2 bsize=4096 log =internal bsize=4096 blocks=3765, version=1 = sectsz=512 sunit=0 blks realtime =none extsz=65536 blocks=0, rtextents=0 running strings on initrd-2.6.18-1.2239.fc5smp shows: mkrootdev -t xfs -o logbufs=8,logbsize=64k,ro sda3 initrd-2.6.18-1.2200.fc5smp.img does: mkrootdev -t xfs -o logbufs=8,ro sda2 And this line doesn't show up in 2.6.17-1.2187. FC5 by default is creating a version 1 xfs log, so trying to mount with a 64k logbsize won't work. Other then upgrading to a version 2 (the tools weren't available the last time I tried) any ideas how to fix this? Any ideas? Clem
