By removing "rhgb" and "quiet" from the grub commandline, I see a whole bunch of write-up going by, then there is a several-second pause, and then this: dracut warning: no root device "block:/dev/mapper/vg_ws194-lv_root" found After that I get the kernel panic message and that's the end of the line. By booting the machine from the rescue cd, I can find /mnt/sysimage/dev/mapper/vg_ws194-lv_root, which is a symbolic link to ../dm-0 /mnt/sysimage/dev/dm-0 exists. lvscan tells me this: ACTIVE '/dev/vg_ws194/lv_root' [50.00 GiB] inherit lvdisplay shows a bunch of stats about /dev/vg_ws194/lv_root that look normal to me. In summary, it looks very much like vg_ws194-lv_root is indeed present and accounted for, but dracut didn't find it for some reason. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER!
