kernel panic at boot


Hi,

I just finished installing FC5 as a guest on an VMWare machine. Everything was pretty much vanilla, going quite smoothly. However the other day I forgot to go through the usual linux shutdown process before stopping the VMWare server, sort of a "virtual power failure". Now I can't boot (see the captured screen below). I was able to see the lvm disk by using a live-cd (gentoo), fsck'd (clean) and mount it on some mountpoint, but again can't boot, not even in single user mode. Any tips will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Dan
