Some of the messages just prior to that would be helpful. Just telling us that it can't mount the file system is too little information.

But Linux would not come up. We get the message to this effect: Kernel panic: can not mount root fs (reiserfs) Is there any IPL paramter or something we set up to examine and get a successful IPL? Otherwise we need to recall our off-site backup and restore, which could take a long time. Help appreciated. __________________________________________ Ranga Nathan / CSG Systems Programmer - Specialist; Technical Services; BAX Global Inc.
