It's hard to tell from your description.

I have no idea why the rescue kernel boots just fine, although it does not establish the above links either, rather it sets up the links /dev/md/<hostname>:{boot,root,swap} pointing to the assembled /dev/md125 etc. My particular problem is: how do I get it to boot the later kernels? What should be my repair process? I have tried a boot with the rhgb and quiet removed and got no additional information. BTW once booted cat /proc/mdstat gives: Personalities : [raid1] md57 : active raid1 sdb7[1] sda7[0] 554533696 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] md99 : active raid1 sdd[1] sdc[0] 976631360 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] md121 : active raid1 sdb2[1] sda2[0] 153500992 blocks [2/2] [UU] md120 : active raid1 sda3[0] sdb3[1] 263907712 blocks [2/2] [UU] md125 : active raid1 sde1[0] sdf1[1] 478813184 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] bitmap: 3/4 pages [12KB], 65536KB chunk md126 : active raid1 sde2[0] sdf2[1] 1046528 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] bitmap: 0/1 pages [0KB], 65536KB chunk md127 : active (auto-read-only) raid1 sde3[0] sdf3[1] 8382464 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] unused devices: <none> no degraded raid devices ..... > Otherwise, you might remove "rhgb" and "quiet" from the kernel boot > parameters and see if there's any useful information printed to the > console while booting a recent kernel. > > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
