Bug 211060

sounds like a broken initrd.  what does your /etc/modprobe.conf look like?

Peter, any ideas?

This is the contents of /etc/modprobe.conf:
cat /etc/modprobe.conf
alias eth0 8139too
alias scsi_hostadapter ata_piix
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-intel8x0 index=0
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 
|| : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0

Respectfully,
Jason

what's the output of rpm -q lvm2 device-mapper

I reported the bug.  The output from rpm -q lvm2 device-mapper:
lvm2-2.02.01-1.2.1
device-mapper-1.02.02-3.2

The configuration is exactly as the setup for FC5 created it.  The system is a 
Shuttle SB61G2 with three WD2500 drives, and a slim line DVD-ROM/CD-RW.  Other 
info that I thought may possibly help is below.  If there is anything else that 
I can post that may help, by all means please let me know.

Respectfully,
Jason

I posted a message to the Fedora List just prior to filing this bug report, and 
have received a work around for the problem.  The information is below.

This is Bz 202596 again.

If root is on a raid 5 device, or you need raid 5 during boot, need to 
run mkinitrd --with=raid456 after booting an older FC5 kernel.  Module 
raid5 is now raid456.

this seems to be a followup bug of #211030.
#208382 seems to be the same problem on the xen0 kernel.
