Hi all,
I just yum upgraded three different FC8 workstations I have here at work
to the latest kernel update and all three broke in the same manner. Upon
restart grub loads the kernel and initrd, then it goes through the
classic errors of:
Unable to access resume device (LABEL=SWAP-sda2)
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or directory
switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory
My guess is that the initrd has bad info from the mkinitrd during the
kernel install. Anyone else seeing this? These are installs that have
been working fine with FC8 for months, and have had nothing change. All
that I did was install the kernel update with yum, and the old kernel
still works fine. As far as I can tell grub.conf is also correct. Any ideas?
