Possible problem with rhgb
 
Im running FC2 and whenever i boot up with rhgb as a kernel switch in GRUB i get this message when INIT starts running (something like this):

fsck.ext2: Unable to resolve 'ABEL=/'

It seems to be that there is some config file that's running fsck.ext2 with the switch
"ABEL=/" when it should be "LABEL=/" any idea where i can find this file anybody?
When I boot without the rhgb switch everything is fine.

Thanks,

I dont think it's anything to do with grub as there's nowhere i can see in grub.conf where the hard disk checking is specified.

My grub.conf file
Code:

# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.

#          kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda6
#          initrd /initrd-version.img
#          boot=/dev/hda5
default=0

Looks like it was an error my /etc/fstab file. :) Still beats me how i managed to do a text boot without any problems.... :confused:

sorry i couldnt understand your trouble before. but now it is ok.

actually i dont know the answer.
but /etc/rc.sysinit file runs at startup and ask about disk check if disc unmounted uncleanly. i think it is possible to find what files is used for fsck by tracing rc.sysinit .
i didnt trace it because it is a long file :D

also check /var/log/messages . it will say u if something wrong with your disc.

there is something about fsck in fstab.
"man fstab"
The sixth field, (fs_passno), is used by the fsck(8) program to deter-
mine the order in which filesystem checks are done at reboot time. The
root filesystem should be specified with a fs_passno of 1, and other
filesystems should have a fs_passno of 2. Filesystems within a drive
will be checked sequentially, but filesystems on different drives will
be checked at the same time to utilize parallelism available in the
hardware. If the sixth field is not present or zero, a value of zero
is returned and fsck will assume that the filesystem does not need to
be checked.

here is my /etc/fstab
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
