This is happening early during boot, insmod is failing to load several
modules. Last to fail is ext3.ko and the panic sets in immediately
after. No file system yet, so I have no logs.
I have no serial port on this machine to redirect the console output to,
is there any other way to capture any more than a screen full of output
for bugzilla?
boot with vga=791, and take a pic with digital camera :)
Have not had a problem on this machine with any of the earlier FC4
release kernels.
9 times out of 10 this is a broken initrd.
Your /etc/modprobe.conf may yield some clues.
