Welcome!
I have the serious problem with booting of my machine. It is run on
Ubuntu distro (5.10), with lvm2 raid 1 on two identical sata hard
disks. Lilo bootloader. The problem is that after small change in
lilo.conf and running /sbin/lilo my system is no longer bootable. I
see 'kernel panic' message. When I try to run lilo again (from Ubuntu
Live! cd) I see some comments somehow related to dev-mapper:
what is exactly that you are doing to reinstall lilo?
i don't use ubuntu, but generally:
you should mount your original root fs on, say, /root
mount --bind /dev /root/dev
mount --bind /proc /root/proc
mount --bind /sys /root/sys
chroot /root /sbin/lilo
Dear Luka,
Thanks a lot for your answer and a clue. Unfortunately it doesn't help
me :-(
Here you go, what am I doing after system start:
* Ubuntu Live! CD is booting, I hit <ener> key
* system is starting in graphical mode
* I open terminal window
# sudo su
# cd /mnt
# mkdir dev proc boot sys
# mount -v -t ext3 /dev/PV/boot /mnt/boot
dev/mapper/PV-boot on /mnt/boot type ext3 (rw)
# mount -v -t ext3 /dev/PV/root /mnt/root
dev/mapper/PV-root on /mnt/root type ext3 (rw)
#mount -v -t proc none /mnt/proc
none on /mnt/proc type proc (rw)
#mount -v -t sysfs none /mnt/sys
none on /mnt/sys type sysfs (rw)
#chroot /mnt /bin/bash
#lilo

:-((( Please help me, what can I do now?
I have regenerated initrd, (update-initrd command). It did not help too.
Kind regards,
Maciej (mslonik)
