Yet when running the original (2.6.9-1.667smp) FC3 kernel I get
findfs LABEL=/
/dev/sda6
...naturally enough, since I'm able to boot the original and do this
there. :^)
SATA? Yes: /dev/sda is ATA ST380013AS (ata_piix, ICH5).
Same problem with non-smp 2.6.9-1.678_FC3, BTW, and, yes, if I make
root=/dev/sda6 in grub.conf the new kernels remain unbootable.
Why is it then an issue with not finding the partition label?
Anyone else seeing this?
Probably a bug with the new kernel Dave Jones <davej(a)redhat.com> is
already searching a cause and solution for. See i.e. the thread
"kernel-2.6.9-1.678_FC3 Panic atkbd.c" here on the list and the bigger
one "New FC3 Kernel causes panic" on the testers list.
