I just had to replace a motherboard in my Linux box (floppy controller went bad) and now, for some reason, when I'm trying to boot my 2.2.10 kernel, I get kernel panic while mounting root fs. I can't reproduce the exact message right now, but it seems that while booting it's doing a normal partition check and fails then. However, I can boot my 2.0.36 kernel off the boot disk without a single problem (yet, I might get some headaches because I can not recompile the 2.0.36 kernel since I switched to 2.2.10) Any idea why 2.2.10 panics and 2.0.36 boots?
TIA, Andrew
