Here's a rough transcription of what's going on: >Mounting root filesystem >mount: error 2 mounting ext3 >pivotroot: pivot_root(/sysroot,/sysroot/initrt) failed: 2 >umount /initrd/proc failed: 2 >Freeing unused kernel memory: 136k freed >Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel. Was "root=/dev/rootvol/root" changed to "root=/dev/rootvg/root" in the /boot/grub/grub.conf file? >I'd be happy to provide more info if it would help anyone.
