OK, Hold the phone Susan, and stamp IDIOT on my forehead. The erason for not getting any output on the console was that I had configured the kernel without support for virtual terminals or console on virtual terminals. Once I configured that correctly, things worked. Duh! The thing I don't understand is why would not having that configured in give me the lost journal and an inability to boot and mount the root partition when I booted back into a "normal" kernel. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
