I had no trouble with panics booting new CR kernel either, but detecting my PCI-e parallel port http://www.spinics.net/lists/centos/msg119673.html. The worst is nobody has given even any clue related to it. Maybe this is the difference between RHEL and CentOS. If I was a RHEL licensed user, R

No ideas yet, but let me ask this: if you boot into rescue mode mode with a CentOS 6 disk, what happens if you were modify partitions and format the file systems within the shell? It would be interesting to see if you were to get a kernel panic at that point or not. - Rilindo Foster http://m
