After it ran out of initrd though, it was unable to find the actual root filesystem partition. Under those circumstances it does say: Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! so "panic" was the right phrase here, even though it makes one think of something quite different. As I pointed out 18 hours ago, if it was the case the root=(LABEL=/ ?) part of the kernel commandline in /boot/grub/grub.conf no longer matched the partitions on the drive for some reason, it could have directly explained it. -Andy -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
