Subject: [FIXED][BUG] 2.6.24.x can't boot (sysfs: could not mount)
Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2008 08:06:16 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <15891.73472.qm@web45112.mail.sp1.yahoo.com> (raw)

OK... Sorry about the "noise". I traced the problem down to fs/super.c and a
the supermount patch I was using. Fixed now. Sorry again for the false alert...
