Sounds like a drive failure maybe. I would first boot with a diskette and
mount your hd's. Then you can poke around your lilo.conf (assuming lilo) and
find where your kernel sits. You want to see if you can mount that hd. This
is a starting point at least.

Thanks for the replies.
I made a folder called /initrd and the thing booted past that.
I upgraded the kernel to the .smp version and reinstalled xfs again and grub

That seemed to work. I have no idea how that directory was deleted.

Seems very odd. It's the same error I got when trying to boot from a

One more piece of infor
OK I just started having this problem also.
/initrd exists, / is not full, permissions on /sbin/init look OK.
The problem occurs with the 2.4.9-34 and 2.4.9-31 kernels, but not the
2.4.7-10 kernel that shipped with 7.2 originally.
All file systems are ext3.

I never have recompiled the kernel on this system.

Kate,
I've never had the pleasure of using a rescue disk, but I think that it just
loads a small filesystem in memoryit's not your original setup, and that
may be why things look correct. Try mounting your / partition, or
whichever, after you boot off of the rescue disk, and change back what
