At the end of installation I reboot the system and all works well. Then I upgrade to etch. I install the new kernel 2.6.18 and initramfs-tools. I create the new initrd then, at the end of upgrade, reboot the system. It hangs saying that cannot find my volume group and is "waiting for root filesystem..." In my preceding upgrades, months ago, I didn't had this problem. I have this problem with newer upgrades to etch. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
