After that it's trying to mount root and it fails with kernel panic.
This system is using disk partitions. It's not using LVM.
I can boot in rescue mode and "chmod /mnt/sysimage". All partitons are there and mountable. No fsck errors. I checked /boot/grub/grub.conf and it looks fine to me. The time stamp was from last month when I did the first update. Also there are no new files in /boot since the update from last month.
Why is it looking for logical volumes? Any idea?
Not certain, but maybe relabeling the volumes might help? It shouldn't make a difference if you're not using LVMs, but recently I had a boot failure on a RedHat system that was resolved by using e2label on all the disk partitions.
