1. Use your install CD to boot into rescue mode (insert CD and type "rescue" at the Boot: prompt). -When I did this the CD wouldn't go into rescue mode and gave me an error. I then chose the "run a shell" option from the install menu. 2. mkdir /target; mount /dev/ida/c0d0p1 /target (or whatever is your root partition. NB I did not have to provide any options. I did not have my partition map handy so I just mounted every partition on an empty dir and viewed the contents to figure out what was in each partition.) 3. If you created separate boot and usr partitions, mount the partitions on /target/boot and /target/usr (you are recreating the required tree under /target). You don't need any other partitions. 4. add cpqarray to /etc/mkinitramfs/modules (nano /etc/modules and add "cpqarray" as the last line). 5. chroot /target (now it looks like you are in your installation). 6. /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img /lib/modules/2.6.12-9-686/ (this will build the new initrd.img in /boot). 7. Cd to /boot and verify that you are happy (I just ensured the new img was larger than the old one). Then backup the old img and rename the new img to the same name as the old img (initrd.img-2.6.12-9-686 for me). 8. Reboot. Everything went smoothly after that. -- Boot fails after 6.06 server install on Compaq Proliant DL360 https://launchpad.net/bugs/47526 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
