Bug Description
Linux kernels 2.6.10-5-686_34.4 and 2.6.11-1-686_0.2 panic on load with:
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
2.6.10-5-386_34.3 works (I'm hesitant to upgrade to 34.4). My root filesystem is
reiserfs. The relevant lines from my grub/menu.lst:
# kopt=root=/dev/hda1 ro
[...]
# groot=(hd0,0)
[...]
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.10-5-686
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-
initrd /boot/initrd.
savedefault
boot
[...]
title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.10-5-386

Please send /boot/initrd. img-2.6. 10-5-686, /boot/initrd. img-2.6. 10-5-386, and
the output from "lspci".
