I ran into the problem when I updated from kernel-2.6.18-gentoo-r5 to kernel-2.6.29-gentoo-r3. At the same time, I switched from using the BLK_DEV_PIIX driver to the ATA_PIIX driver. Booting the new kernel produced similar errors concerning the file system being to large for the partition. The system could not boot the root file system. Booting back into 2.6.18, fsck corrected some corruption and the system booted normally. Every time I booted into the 2.6.29 kernel, I received the same errors. I recompiled the 2.6.29 kernel to use the BLK_DEV_PIIX driver and the errors went away. I'd attach the dmesg of the boot with the error. However, the root file system wouldn't mount. I not sure how I'd capture it. If I get a chance tomorrow, I'll try booting the system from a Knoppix image and see if it has problems mounting the hard drive. lspci output: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE/PE DRAM Controller/Host-Hub Interface (rev 03) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 02) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 02) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 02) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-M) USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 02) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev 82) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL (ICH4/ICH4-L) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 02) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801DB (ICH4) IDE Controller (rev 02) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) SMBus Controller (rev 02) 00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02) 01:0c.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
