Below is a log of what is shown on screen after jfs_fsck has been run on the rootfs: Could not locate device by label or uuid warning... fsck.jfs for device /dev/md1 exiteds with signal 11 operational error remounting root filesystem read/write mount: / not mounted already, or bad option root filesystem could not be mounted read/write The issue arose when I upgraded my kernel from 2.6.28-gentoo-r2 to 2.6.38-gentoo-r3. If I boot my original kernel the system still boots fine, but booting the new kernel results in the errors above. Is this a bug, or perhaps I have missed something in my kernel configuration? Many thanks in advance for your kind assistance. Please let me know if you need any further information. Best Regards Matt Dunnington
