Indeed, this seems to be a kernel problem for me. I
tried the old
mkinitrd (6.0.9-9) with now luck. Here's the short
table of kernels I
have and boot/don't boot:
kernel-2.6.23-0.139.rc3.git10.fc8 BOOT
kernel-2.6.23-0.142.rc3.git10.fc8 FAILS
kernel-2.6.23-0.149.rc4.fc8 FAILS
kernel-xen-2.6.21-2931.fc8 BOOT
kernel-xen-2.6.21-2933.fc8 FAILS
The fail message is:
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a
while...
No volume groups found
Volume group "VolGroup00" not found
Unable to access resume device
(/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01)
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or
directory
setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or
directory
setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or
directory
switchroot: mount failed: No such file or directory
Is this known problem? Should I file a bugzilla? Do
you need more info?

I have the same situation. I just put in todays
updates to see if the the newer kernel booted and it
still comes out with the same thing as your output
from above.
Updated: acl.i386 0:2.2.39-8.fc8 fedora-release.noarch
0:7.91-1 flex.i386 0:2.5.33-11.fc8 libacl-devel.i386
0:2.2.39-8.fc8 mkinitrd.i386 0:6.0.13-1.fc8
pirut.noarch 0:1.3.16-1.fc8 vixie-cron.i386
4:4.2-2.fc8
Dependency Updated: libacl.i386 0:2.2.39-8.fc8
nash.i386 0:6.0.13-1.fc8
Complete!
Only 2.6.23-0.139.rc3.git10.fc8 boots on on one of my
machines, it is the only kernel that works. What
could be going wrong?
