From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.7) Gecko/20070914 Firefox/2.0.0.7 Description of problem: I have a FC6 system running kernel 2.6.18 with nvidia (fake) raid - running fine. After I upgraded the kernel (via rpm) to 2.6.22 the system fails to boot (error messages below). I recompiled the kernel included dmraid support but no difference. Is this a bug or am I doing something obviously wrong here... device-mapper: table: 253:0: mirror: Device lookup failure device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: No such device or address Unable to access resume device (LABEL=SWAP-nvidiajfe) mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root' setuproot: moving /dev/ failed: No such file or directory setuprooot: error mounting /proc: No such file or directory setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or directory switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2-6-22 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot the 2.6.22 kernel (x86_64) 2. 3. Actual Results: See onscreen error message in DESCRIPTION section Expected Results: Should boot normally (as was the case under 2.6.18) Additional info:
A little more info... I'm currently running Fc6 2.6.18-1.2849 (raid works great). Version which fails to boot is FC6 2.6.22.5 (won't boot) The motherboard is an ASUS A8N32-SLI-Deluxe, with onboard nvidia raid controller.
I've got the same problem. Installing Fedora 8 Test 3 was not a problem. But booting fails with the same errors. I've upgraded also to the latest rawhide kernel within the rescue system and chroot. But it still fails to boot. My machine is a Core 2 Duo with P35-Chipset and ICH9R Raid 0.

It would be great to fix this also for the Fedora > 8 release. Is there any way to make the "dm create" parameters generic or programatically determined? I have no idea how to get the parameters for my setup...and I suspect the the new initrd (for general distribution) would need something more generic... Could you let me know how to get the comparable parameters for my system?
