I have a dell 1650 server running RedHat 7.3 that has the following error on boot:
Warning: unable to open initial console kernel panic. no init found. try passing init= to the kernel The hardware setup is three scsi drives on a hardware raid5 card. The raid card is fine I can boot into rescue mode and mount the paritions fine: mkdir /hdd mount /dev/sda2 /hdd mount /dev/sda1 /hdd/boot mount /dev/sda6 /hdd/vz But when i change directory to /hdd/etc/ it is empty! Also, i found out that i can't write any files into the etc/ directory. It gives me an input output error. Is there any way i can reinstall redhat without corrupting or deleting the existing data? I have backups of the /etc/ directory, but they are old and for some reason only the directories got backed up, no lilo.conf. I am using lilo for my bootloader any help would be greatly appreciated! -Andy -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
