Fedora Core 10 - PowerEdge 1950 III

[Patrick_Boyd at Dell.com]

There is a bug in Fedora 10 that has to do with asynchronous discovery
of SCSI devices. You need to add the scsi_wait_scan module to your
initrd. See this bug here:

Hello.

 

I am attempting to install Fedora Core 10 on a new Dell PowerEdge 1950
III with embedded Perc 6/I Raid 1.  The installation process works
great.  The installation program recognizes the Dell Per 6/1 Raid,
creates its partitions, and formats with no problem.  The installation
proceeds installing Fedora, and then it reboots.

 

Upon reboot, I get the following:

 

Reading all physical volumes.  This may take a while...

Volume group "VolGroup00" not found

Unable to access resume device (/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01)

Mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3: No such file or
directory

Fedora never loads.  I have tried reinstalling, but the same results
accurred.  If anyone has advice to offer, I would appreciate it.

 

Thank you,

 

Tim
