I think it's megaraid driver module which isn't loaded correctly. Here is the output of the kernel shortened to the relevant part: .... SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 megaraid: v1.18k (Release Date: Thu Aug 28 10:05:11 EDT 2003) megaraid: no BIOS enabled. /lib/modules/2.4.27-1-386/kernel/drivers/scsi/megaraid.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg /lib/modules/2.4.27-1-386/kernel/drivers/scsi/megaraid.o: insmod megaraid failed Journalled Block Device driver loaded pivot_root: No sKernel panic: Attempted to kill init! uch file or directory I already reported this together with another bug (#276379) which was fixed by Joshua Kwan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

It also happens with a Dell PowerEdge 2850 which has the same controller. -- Timo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
