I ran a kickstart and the system booted up fine for the first time. Then I was in the process of implementing quotas and it looks like I left an extra 'i' character after "defaults" on the first /etc/fstab line:
/dev/myvg/rootvol / ext3 defaultsi,usrquota,grpquota 1 1 so that I got the following error on boot: EXT3-fs: unrecognized mount option "defaultsi" or missing value mount: error mounting /dev/root/ on /sysroot as ext3: Invalid argument setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or directory setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or directory setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or directory switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! To try to fix it, I booted up knoppix, vgscan, vgchange -a y, mount /dev/myvg/rootvol /mnt/rootvol, and then edited the /mnt/rootvol/etc/fstab file deleting the extra 'i'. I rebooted but I still get the error above. I even copied the /etc/fstab from another working RHEL5 system and I still get the same error as above. Also cleaned out /etc/mtab but it didn't help. What's going on? Where is it getting the "defaultsi" option from? It definitely isn't in /etc/fstab or i'm hallucinating and vim isn't working properly because /i didn't return anything in the file! help! _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
