Install of rawhide 2005-12-01 - installs OK, won't boot

[G.Wolfe Woodbury]

Test install of rawhide for 2005-12-01 report

installation: OK, no errors

first boot:   FAIL, Kernel Panic...: Attempted to kill init!
		preceeded by:
			Unable to access resume device
			(This is expected)

No idea what is causing the kernel panic.

I had previously done an FC5t1+rawhide(2005-12-01) but did not test the
new kernel before testing the rawhide install.

The interesting part of this failure is the text preceeding this.
Can you say some things about your IO controller set up too ?
SCSI ? IDE ? SATA ? RAID ?

MSI motherboard with VIA chipset, Celeron (Coppermine) CPU @500MHz
VIA IDE controller, Maxtor 6GB ATA Drive, Trident Cyberblad/i1 video
almost everything "onboard" the mobo.

I say that this was expected in that it is looking for a "resume" image
in the swap space "LABEL=SWAP-..... and doesn't find it, then issues the
unable to access message.  This has been in rawhide kernels for a month
or two now, hasn't it?

Now in the process of re-installing FC5t1 to test updates w/rawhide and
the kernel from 2005-12-01.
