just upgraded from fc6 to f7 using the dvd method. my computer has 2 SATA drives and is partitoned like so: /dev/sda1 linux partition /dev/sda2 linux swap /dev/sdb1 linux partition It should be noted that sda1 and sda2 are using RAID 1 at /dev/md0. After installing, I tried booting and got the follow kernel panic: Creating root device. mkrootdev: expected fs options mounting root filesystemb. mount: missing mount point setting up other filesystems. setting up new root fs setuproot: moving /dev failed: no such file or directory no fstab.sys, mounting internal defaults setuproot: error mounting /proc: no such file or directory setuproot: error mounting /sys: no such file or directory switching to new root and running init. unmounting old /dev unmounting old /proc unmounting old /sys switchroot: mount failed: no such file or directory Booting has failed. kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! grub.conf ----------- root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version root=/dev/md0 initrd /boot/initrd-version.img It should also be noted that my /dev/md0 has only a single mount point "/" (i.e. no separate /boot mount points etc.) Let me know what else you need to help resolve this issue. mark.
I created a /boot partition in sdb2 (formerly free space) and then reinstalled the kernel but the problem still exists. I'll try and post my /etc/fstab later tonight.
Please post contents of /etc/fstab and also create an attachment with the contents of your initrd.
