Interesting. I will try this again. I was working with I believe
fedora core 6. I noticed this was happening. It is not a symlink on
fedora core 6. This may have something to do with udev.

I don't understand. In my system, /dev/root is a symlink, and find_root_device
skips symlinks. Why does any problem happen?
