Hello all.
I just upgraded to the latest and tried to reboot: kernel panic and dead as a brick.
Luckily GRUB still works and booting the to the next option in boot menu succeeds.
How can this be? This OS is assumed to be solid as a brick :)
Do you have any excludes in /etc/yum.conf? We had an issue about a year ago, where, in spite of exclude kernel, someone other than me ran an update, or there was some auto-update, I don't remember, and it appeared to *partly* install the kernel... and did not appear to do any post-install actions (like building the ramdisk). I reinstalled the kernel, with my usual disableexcludes=all, and the upgrade succeeded, and all was good.
Appears there are unfinished transactions pending… I’m now running yum-complete-transaction and then trying to boot.
Hard to say what it panicked for, as anything in /var/log/ tells afterwards… All boot.log -versions before this day are 0 bytes.
