Kernel panic - (RedHat - migrating from RHEL 3.0 ... 2.4 kernel to RH4.0 2.6 ker

Kernel panic - (RedHat - migrating from RHEL 3.0 ... 2.4 kernel to RH4.0 2.6 ker

2006-02-04       - By Murali Vallath

 Back
the current state..

Did and Upgrade from 2.4 to 2.6 kernel RHEL4.0 version 2.6.9-5 EL kernel
image.. at which time I had no issues.. it booted fine.

subsequently I wanted to get to the latest kernel.. so did a upgrade to
2.6.9-22.el using CDs
now I am stuck..

........ error on boot....
Mounting root filesystem
mount: error 6 mounting ext3
mount: error 2 mounting none
Switching to new root
switchroot: mount failed: 22
umount /initrd/dev failed: 2
kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
.........................
my grub.conf file looks like this...

#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (2.6.9-22.EL)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinux-2.6.9-22.EL ro root=/dev/sda1
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-22.EL.img

............................................

based on a search on google.. I added the /dev/sda1 to the root assuming
it was a LABEL issue.
however I am having no luck.

My knowledge of Linux is very bad when it comes to linking and compiling
etc. if any of this is required please add some steps..

looking for help...

thks
