I am having similar problems with latest FR. I have tried ext2 and ext3 root, 
still get a kernel 
panic because it can't mount root.

Can you explain exactly how you used the usb console to change the boot? what 
runs on the host 
computer that lets you access the USB console? (Is it a standard serial 
terminal talking to a 
usd/serial emulator?)

Thanks
