Looks like this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?format=multiple&id=827997
You could try to force-install a new fresh kernel (rpm -Uvh --force kernel.rpm) and recreating grub.cfg afterwards. Seems to be a problem with one of the Fedora kernels.
Finally got it to boot. Used /dev/sda2 instead of UUID. BTW, using root=LABEL gives same devnode error.
I'll try to force-install kernel.rpm. But which kernel? Does it matter? The most recent F17 kernel on koji is 3.5.2-3, which is that same kernel now installed!
IIRC, if you specify "LABEL=" and "UUID=", the device must match both (it's a logical AND). You said that the UUID was correct, so odds are the label isn't correct. Check via "e2label /dev/sda2".
My $0.02: choose either "LABEL=" or "UUID=", but not both. Or skip it all and use the device. Chances are that the UUID will be more unique so I'd use that.
I may have been confusing - I used LABEL _instead of_ UUID. The label came from blkid. I think LABEL is subject to the same bug as UUID.
I misread your post. I thought your grub2 stanza had both specified, but it was the output of your blkid command. Sorry. I have to be more careful. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@alldigital.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - "Hello.
