Don't know. It looks like your kernel OR initrd are not able to either find the disk containing rootfs or deal with the filesystem on it. I do not work with Ubuntu so I cannot give you specific advice, especially since I don't know what kind of upgrade you did and whether all the operations succeeded. Did you do anything by hand? Compile/install a new kernel? Ran mkinitrd? Modified grub.conf? Were any of these operations performed automatically during the upgrade? Did they succeed? Is the old kernel still around? Does it boot? If so, how do the configurations differ? Assuming there is no indication of anything that went wrong, I would check the following: * Is the GRUB (or whatever bootloader you use) configuration correct? * Is the filesystem corresponding to the rootfs compiled into the kernel or as a module? * Is the filesystem corresponding to the rootfs compiled into the kernel (not as a module) and you use initrd? What are the contents of initrd? Does it have the right FS driver? * Is there any problem with the disk or the partition table? Just possible directions to check. -- Oleg Goldshmidt | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.goldshmidt.org ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
