View Full Version : [ubuntu] Upgrade from 9.04 Server to 10.04 server and cannot boot

Hello all,

I'm hoping someone can help me.
I've just upgraded by dedicated server with OVH from 9.04 to 10.04 and it now refuses to boot with the error
"kernel panic unable to mount rootfs on unknown block 2,0"

With OVH you must use their custom kernel, but this has been installed and seems to boot thus far, but fails at above.
OVH also recommend adding a dev line to fstab, which I've done: http://travaux.ovh.net/?do=details&id=4154

I'm now at a loss as what to do, as it seems the kernel can't see the hard drives, yet when I boot up in rescue mode, I can mount all the drives fine.

Any help gratefully received!

This looks a bit strange to me.

The list mentions 2.6.38, which is the kernel used in Ubuntu 11.04. Have you upgraded all the way to 11.04?

You can not upgrade from 9.04 directly to 10.04. You can only upgrade 9.04 to 9.10. Did you do that, and THEN upgrade to 10.04?

You also are missing an initramfs for your kernel, and why are you using lilo?
