GOOD NEWS!! I found the the bus error message is comming from installing the latest version of e2fs-progs. It was auto-updated with ximian redcarpet. (bugger). All I had to do was boot the RH7.2 in rescue mode, chroot into my file system and rpm -ivh e2fs-progs --froce, from the original RH7.2 cd and she boots again.
