Title: SME wont start after May 27 update - Bug 5980
Post by: tlicht on May 28, 2010, 07:59:13 AM: I got an e-mail message that updates are available to SME yesterday and initiated the update today via the web interface from a client machine. When finished I pressed the reconfigure button and now I get to:
... Activating logical volumes Volume group "main" not found ERROR: /bin/lvm exited abnormally! (pid 443) Creating root device Mounting root filesystem mount: error 6 mounting ext3 mount: error 2 mounting none Switching to new root switchroot: mount failed: 22 umount /initrd/dev failed: 2 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

..so now I panic. Is there a rescue????
I have a 'clean' install just a few weeks old with no contribs.
Several restart attempts give the same result.

No, it is a 'real' machine
hmm... I booted with the topmost kernel listed: 2.6.9-89.0.25.EL
Do I need to get a new account in order to be able to file a bug? My 'normal' id/pw doesn't seem to work...
