8.2 was installed on XFS partitions on this system and the only trouble that I 
had was making a boot disk. Then I re-installed it with a separate ext3 /boot 
partition.

beta2 would install but wouldn't boot for me until I put the /root and /boot 
(was always ext3) partitions together on one ext3 partition. No separate 
/boot. 

I wasn't about to reformat the entire system and lose everything.

The boot continued to a point then went:
"kernel panic VFS: unable to mount root at 03:05!" repeatedly. It was OK 
booting form a boot disk, it just wouldn't boot otherwise.
