Public bug reported:
My system does not boot since the new root=UUID=ba04a9fc-fce6-4f33-b8a3-0646c3540c59 was introduced in /boot/grub/menu.lst a few weeks ago. At boot it hangs with something like "waiting for root fs". I have tried again after the today kernel 2.6.17-6.18 update. To get it to boot I need to replace it back to root=/dev/md0. Root is on a linux software raid0 (/dev/md0). --------- I replace : kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.17-6-amd64-xeon root=UUID=ba04a9fc-fce6-4f33-b8a3-0646c3540c59 ro quiet splash with: kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.17-6-amd64-xeon root=/dev/md0 ro quiet splash ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- system won't boot with new root=UUID in menu.lst https://launchpad.net/bugs/56177 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
