Thanks Kevin, and sorry...I should've had that at the ready.

I'm assuming you want the entirety of /etc/grub2.cfg? If not, I apologize for the length....

Hello Fedora Users list!

I sent this recently to our local LUG list, but no one was able to help. I looked to see if this has been talked about and as far as I know, it hasn't (outside of something similar with Fedora 15, but it seemed the solution there was incomplete).

I have 3 kernels installed on my Fedora 16 laptop -- kernel-3.2.2-1.fc16.i686, kernel-3.2.5-3.fc16.i686 and kernel-3.2.6-3.fc16.i686. When I try to boot 3.2.5-3 or 3.2.6-3, I get a kernel panic message with the message "initramfs unpacking failed uncompression error" followed by "not syncing, no init found". Both of these were installed via normal yum updating; nothing out of the ordinary for them.

In the beginning, booting into the oldest one, 3.2.2-1 has no problems, fortunately. Haven't seen anything helpful mentioned on the Interwebz about such an error, was wondering if anyone had seen something similar. Just to be sure, I removed the 2 newer kernels and then did a "yum install kernel" to see if something was corrupted the first time, but I'm still getting the same results. 

The last time I reboot, *all* of the kernels would give the error message. I was able to first boot into single-user and then, when exiting, it boot properly. I just installed the latest kernel update and (3.2.7.x) and getting the same thing.

Thanks!

Brian

Brian,

What does your grub or grub2 config file look like?
