I have installed a
Linux Server with AS 2.1 enterprise and a Kernel
release : Linux lu-lx1d.clt-ufa.net
2.4.9-e.24smp
So I added more than 8GB of swap then I
have an error in my install log
Installing kernel-smp.
tar: error while loading shared libraries: libredhat-kernel.so.1:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
tar: error while loading shared libraries: libredhat-kernel.so.1:

and the kernel
fails to boot, kernel panic, he tries to mount the root file-system without
success
Error
Message:
VFS: Mounted root
(ext3 filesystem).
VFS: Cannot open root device "cciss/c0d0p3" or 68:03
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 68:03

I try to boot with
the up kernel, with success than I trie to mount the smp kernel
image
# zcat /boot/initrd-2.4.9-e.24smp.img > /tmp/initrd
# mkdir /mnt/rd
# mount -t ext2 -o loop /tmp/initrd /mnt/rd
# ll /mnt/rd/lib
No success.....
An ll command of /boot shows me that the kernel is very small than the other up kernel so
I tried to recreate one with /sbin/mkinitrd
/boot/initrd-2.4.9-e.24smp.img 2.4.9-e.24smp
I mount the image successfully
so I booted on the image with success.
When I remove some swap in my config file of kickstart
so under the 8GB, it works fine.
What can I do, I need more swap for my
instances of oracle.
