Bug#479101: linux-image-2.6.25-1-amd64: Kernel panic: Unable to mount root
Subject: linux-image-2.6.25-1-amd64: Kernel panic: Unable to mount root
Package: linux-image-2.6.25-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.25-1
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Hi,
The new kernel 2.6.25-1 panics on my amd64 MacBookPro machine.
Previous kernels worked. The output is:
[...]
NET: Registered protocol family 1
NET: Registered protocol family 17
registered taskstats version 1
RAMDISK: coulndn't find valid RAM disk image starting at 0
List of all partitions:
... ram0 (driver?)
...
... ram15 (driver?)
No filesystem could mount root, tried:
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block (8,3)
I tried the ideas of http://wiki.debian.org/InitramfsDebug:
with rootdelay=9, it does wait for 9 seconds, afterwards it panics
with the same message.
With 2.6.24, ls /proc/cmdline prints:
BOOT_IMAGE=LinuxOLD ro root=803
I executed, with no luck:
dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.25-1-amd64
dpkg-reconfigure initramfs-tools
ls -l /boot gives:
total 33111

Here is the diff of initramfs content between 2.6.25 and 2.6.24 (I
replaced 2.6.24 with 2.6.25 to have only the useful differences), as
suggested by http://wiki.debian.org/InitramfsDebug:
