Hello,
I am running Redhat 4 distro, kernel 2.6.9. I
downloaded 2.6.10, build the image, created an initrd
image, and updated the grub.conf file.
The entries my grub.conf looks as follows:
default=1
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,2)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 4 Update 5
(2.6.9-55.ELsmp)
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-55.ELsmp ro root=LABEL=/1
console=ttyS0,9660 rhgb quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-55.ELsmp.img
title Linux 2.6.10
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10 ro root=LABEL=/1
console=ttyS0,9660 rhgb quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.10.img
When I boot into 2.6.10, I get the error "mkrootdev:
label \1 not found" right at the begining, followed by
a kernel panic. Screen output as follows:
Red Hat nash version 4.2.1.10 starting
^[[C^[[Dmkrootdev: labelKernel panic - not syncing:
Attempted to kill init!
/1 not found
My 2.6.9 was booting fine, so the all the "label"
stuff should be fine. I checked with "e2label", the
root partition has the right label. What could be the
issue. Is the right driver not getting included in the
initrd image? Any help is very appreciated.
Thank you,
A.
