Hi all, I'm having issues with the latest release of Kernel 2.6.31-21 on a 32bit system. after installing the update, the system wouldn't boot into X, I simply got the sh:grub> prompt. After some time at the command line I did manage to get the sytem to boot using the follwing commands, -
ismod ntfs set root=(hd0,1) loopback loop0 /ubuntu/disks/root.disk set root=(loop0) linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic root=/dev/sda1 loop=/ubuntu/disks/root.disk ro initrd /bootinitrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic boot Then I rebuilt grub2 and re-booted the system -viola problem resolved. HOWEVER, I still can't boot into kernel 2.6.31-21 as the system hangs, - [0.969559] kernel panic - not syncing:VFS:unable to mount root fs on unknown block (8,1) Any ideas? I know that I'm not the only one with this issue.
