When you boot from a USB key, it always shows as /dev/sda. Second, rdshell is a grub shell. Are you trying to boot from the USB? If so, I'd fix the grub menu on that, if it's on /dev/sda1 of the flash drive, to use /dev/sda2 for the root= mark _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
