Description Jonathan Kamens 2007-09-02 14:08:36 UTC 
With kernel-2.6.23-0.149.rc4.fc8 and three IDE devices (two drives, one DVD-RW
drive), the kernel suddenly can't see my primary master and therefore refuses to
boot because it can't find my root partition.  When I fall back to booting from
kernel-2.6.23-0.142.rc3.git10.fc8 and make no other changes, everything works
just fine.
Comment 1 Chuck Ebbert 2007-09-04 23:20:02 UTC 
Is there any way you can capture the boot messages with serial console or
netconsole? Or try a later boot disk, -rc5 at least?
Comment 2 Jonathan Kamens 2007-09-06 02:47:00 UTC 
This is no longer an issue in 2.6.23-0.164.rc5.fc8.
