Description Robert J. Gebis 2007-03-07 16:40:22 UTC
Description of problem: 
After installing fresh FC6 from DVD with Highpoint RAID 1 driver from Highpoint website I was able to 
run fine. Than I did try to do full system update with yum update. After about 550 packages update I 
tried to reboot. With the new kernel (vmlinuz-2.6.19-1.2911.6.5.fc6) I get message 

Volume group "VolGroup00" not found
Creating root device.
Mounting root filesystem.
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'

When I try to boot with old kernel (vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6) it works fine.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

do full yum update on initial/fres installed FC6

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install FC6 x86_64 with RAID1 High point 2310 (driver from web site)
2. update with "yum update"
3. reboot
  
Actual results:

Volume group "VolGroup00" not found
Creating root device.
Mounting root filesystem.
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'

Expected results:


Additional info:

Here is my full grub file:
