I'm building a server based on an Asus M2N-LR mobo, a 3Ware 9550SXU RAID

sata Raptors with 4 of the 5 drives in a RAID 10 array. I'm running Etch.
The problem I'm having is an intermittent one with booting. I will
quite regularly get a message that the root file system cannot be found,
as well as files such sbin/init and /etc/fstab. Here is the most
specific error: mount: mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed.
Just before those messages it says kinit is looking at sda5 for a resume
image but cannot find it. I'm then dumped into a shell after the boot
process fails.
Use either LABEL or UUID. This gets covered on this list at least every
couple of weeks.

Well, that was a huge help. You cut out the part of the message where I
say I don't really understand the rules syntax and just give me
variables. It doesn't do a whole lot for me. If I understood the
syntax I'd have already written my own rules and wouldn't have asked for
help here.
And, btw, I have 81,000+ messages from this list on my machine going
back more than a year. If my reading of them had helped me understand
this well enough to write my own rules I'd have done it.
Guess I'll just look for help elsewhere.
