Mr. Stach, Good catch! With your help, I feel my luck is improving, if slowly... I've updated accordingly, and now am getting a brand new file system issue: Waiting for driver initialization. Scanning and configuring dmraid supported devices Creating root device. Mounting root filesystem. mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root' Setting up other filesystems. Setting up new root fs setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or directory no fstab.sys, mounting internal defaults setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or directory setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or directory Switching to new root and running init. unmounting old /dev unmounting old /proc unmounting old /sys switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! Here is the contents of /tmp/fstab: [root at vvmm03-XEN xen]# cat /tmp/fstab-domU /dev/vg00/c5root00 / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 /dev/vg00/swap00 swap swap defaults 0 0 I'm not sure why it's looking for /dev/root..
