I'm hoping someone can help me with this urgent problem. I just applied the updates that became available in the last couple days to my Debian etch host running on a Dell PowerEdge 2450 server. This included an update to the kernel, so I rebooted the host. The host failed to restart. The first error message on the console was '/init /init cannot open /dev/root no such device.' Just before that, it said "mounting root file system. Running /scripts/local-top." It finally ended by dropping me into BusyBox, with which I'm not familiar.
There were no earlier indications of problems with the output to the console. All the output concerning /dev/sda, where all my directories are partitioned, seemed normal. This host uses a Dell PERC 3/Si card to provide RAID-5. Can anyone help me correct this problem? Any suggestions of commands to run in BusyBox to either fix or diagnose this? Thanks in advance for your help, advice and suggestions. -Kevin Kevin Zembower Internet Services Group manager Center for Communication Programs Bloomberg School of Public Health Johns Hopkins University 111 Market Place, Suite 310 Baltimore, Maryland 21202 410-659-6139 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
