Ursula, Your file system may be so badly damaged that recovery is not possible. But, you can try IPLing from your original install tape (unlabeled tape, with the kernel, parmfile, and ramdisk on it). Then, insmod the DASD driver with the appropriate device numbers, and try to run fsck against the unmounted file systems.

After a kernel crash, our Red Hat 7.2 system doesn't boot anymore! Even starting in run level 1 we get the following message: Assumption failure in unmap-underlying-metadata at buffer.c:1540 "!buffer_jlist_eq(old_bh.3)" So we are looking desperately for a rescue mode! What shall we do, to work at least in a minimum mode? Please help, any suggestions are highly appreciated Uschi
