I had Openfiler running on my NAS box with an uptime of around 10 months. It was running a 2.6.24 kernel. Over time, I've been installing updates including new kernels, but obviously these won't have been used until a reboot.
Last night, there was a power cut and when it came back up, it booted the latest kernel it had, 2.6.26-6.23 I think. Immediately it kernel panicked with a filesystem error. I managed to boot it on the previous 2.6.24 kernel, but I'm trying to figure out why it won't boot on the later kernel.
At first I thought the modules for the SATA controller (VIA VT6420) had been removed, but checking the /lib/modules for each kernel, sata_via.ko is present in each.
Then I noticed that the fstab is fomatted in the LABEL format, so instead of listing /dev/sda2, it lists "LABEL=/". I'm wondering if something changed in the kernel which means that it now can't find where that label reference is.
Anyone any ideas?
