Synaptic notified me that there was new updates today, kernel updates. So I downloaded, installed and rebooted.
Grub's menu.lst hasn't been edited, and I can't get the old kernel to boot.(manually typing them in grub's console). I
I type this in to boot the old 2.6.10 kernel:
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> kernel /vmlinuz.old root=/dev/hde6 ro quiet splash
grub> initrd /initrd.img.old
grub> boot
The kernel starts to boot then says:
Uncompressing Linux... OK, booting the kernel.
audit(1124461878): initialized
Starting Ubuntu...
pivot_root: no such file or directory
/sbin/init: 428: Cannot open /dev/console: No such file
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
Any help would be greatly appreciated, because I really don't want to take the time to reinstall/update/install my tools again.
