Kernel Panic : VFS Unable to mount root fs on 09:02
Hello,
I just used up2date to get the most recent kernel for redhat 8. When I reboot the computer the boot halts and I'm unable to run even a command line. Here are the last three messages:
*****************************************
EXT2-fs: unable to read superblock
isofs_read_super : bread failed, dev = 09:02, iso_blknum=16, block=32
Kernel Panic : VFS : Unable to mount root fs on 09:02
*****************************************
I'm using a Dell Inspiron 4000 800Mhz, 40GB, 256Meg, BIOS A20.
The machine dual boots w/ Win2K using Paragon bootmanager.
Is there a way to back down to the old kernel? Is there any type of emergency boot mode?
I'm a newbie and really stuck! Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe
