I checked as you suggested, ext3, jbd, BusLogic, sd_mod, scsi_mod are
all there. Those are the ones I need (when the other good box that runs
on identical hardware is running, these are the modules it has loaded).
During the bootup I have to try to quickly read the messages as they
scroll by, because once I get to the kernel panic I can't scroll back to
see them.
But I don't see any errors about problems.
It is clearly able to see the hard disk and the partitions.
It doesn't report any errors about failing to load modules or missing
modules (that I could see anyway!)
Any other ideas?
