Hi,
Not sure what I've missed here, but I'm unable to load my machine
using any of the 3.1.0 flavours of the kernel. I can get (I think)
3.0.0-9 to boot no problems.
When I try the 3.1.0 spins, I get a kernel panic soon after booting
kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
Pid1:,comm: swapper Not tainted 3,1,0-0.fc10.git0.1.fc17.x86_64
Any way to fix this?
Make sure you have an initrd line for that kernel in whatever grub
configuration file your machine is using. There have been a number of
cases where the initrd line was missing, which will cause that message
on boot.
