Yeah, I'm seeing this too on an x86_64 machine, so I guess it's not architecture specific. I also have LVM, and an earlier kernel package works Just Fine(tm). I think the version is 2.6.16-1.2157_FC6, but ICBW (I'm relying on memory here). As a future note, I suspect you received filesystem corruption because the filesystem you ran e2fsck upon was mounted at the time. It might help to check /proc/mounts to see if the root filesystem is mounted read/write before running e2fsck by hand, or just perform "mount / -r -o remount" in a blanket fashion before running e2fsck on the root filesystem. -- rob :: pgp 0xb35ff721 :: rob@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
