Kernel Panic on Uninstall
Posted: Thu Oct 01, 2015 4:14 pm
Totally boned. I was trying to troubleshoot some ASL issues, when I decided to uninstall it and see if they went away. (the issues are less important now, given my current situation)
Anyways, I forgot that the asl uninstall requires a new kernel install and so I rebooted and then kernel panic.
I rebooted (server is a 1&1 server) to debian rescue, mounted the partitions and tried to reinstall the kernel but still panic. (couldn't mount filesystem /dev/root)
I ended up reinstalling ASL in rescue mode, which seemed to work (no errors during install) but the kernel didn't get installed. I manged to install the ASL kernel, but there were some complaints about ohci-hcd modules missing, but it installed, and the grub.conf got updated.
Still can't boot. Any ideas on how to proceed?
CentOS 5.11 kernel 3.2.69-81.art.x86_64
Grub >
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.69-81.art.x86_64 ro root=/dev/md1 console=tty0
initrd /boot/initrd-3.2.69-81.art.x86_64
fstab (pertinent line anyways)
/dev/md1 / ext3 defaults 11
Pertinent part of the kernel panic
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
