    I have tried to upgrade my SuSE 9.2 box to a 2.6.11 kernel and it failed to
    boot.
    The error is

    Loading kernel/fs/jbd/jbd.ko
    Loading kernel/fs/ext3/ext3.ko
    waiting for device /dev/hda6 to appear :............... not found -- exiting
    to /bin/sh
    sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
    $

    /dev/hda6 is my / partion

    The same error appears with the 2.6.8-24-smp kernel

    If I boot from my SuSE DVD and choose
    >installation
    >boot installed system

    It will find the SuSE install and boot fine but only with the default 2.6.8-24
    kernel which is uniprocessor.
    Upgrading to the 2.6.11 kernel required upgrading mkinitrd 1.1 to 1.2

    Any help please
    I would rather not reinstall
