From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; iebar; .NET CLR 1.0.3705) Description of problem: I use Adaptec raid card 3200s with two scsi hardisks implemeting RAID 1. I use dueal processor Intel servers with 1 GB Ram. The Redhat ES 3 loads the dpt_i2o driver perfectly and the setup completes with no errors repeating. But when i reboot grub loads the initrd and just hangs on like that....... My grub.conf looks like root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.21-4.ELsmp ro root=/dev/sda2 hdc=ide-scsi initrd /initrd-2.4.21-4.ELsmp.img fstab entries are LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 Label=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 and so on........ I hope grub is not finding out the root.... When i boot with the floppy i get the error messages stating VFS: can't find ext2 filesystem on dev loop(7,0) kernel panic and so on........... I hunged up in middle instead getting the High-end server.... Thanks for the advanced help... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.4.21-4.ELsmp How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.often 2. 3. Additional info:
