Kernel panic f7t3 and f7t4

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Finally decided I need some help with this one.  I get a kernel panic on
several installs of f7t3: iso dvd, and 2 http installs from rawhide,
different snapshots.  Same issue with iso dvd install of f7t4.  All
appear to install normally to sdc which is a wd 160 gig pata.  Machine
also has 2 sata2 drives in raid 1 configuration running centos 5. Here
is hardware setup:
asus A8N-SLI
cpu amd 64 X2 4400+
2 gigs ram
2 maxtor sata2
1 wd pata

I understand the above hda drive is seen by f7 as sdc.

Here is the error message:

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
Kernel panic - not syncing:Attempted to kill init!

Booting in linux rescue mode I get a screen full of garbage characters
and a "You have no linux partitions" error message and drops me to a
shell.  Running fdisk -l shows normal partitions for sdc.

I can mount the f7t4 partitions from centos 5 and all looks normal
AFAICT.

I have a feeling this is very simple but can't seem to put my finger on
it.  Any help much appreciated.

As an aside, I did an install on an old asus A7N8X wd pata drive and all
went well with no known issues.

Thanks agaain.
