Listmates, I am in a fist-fight with grub again most likely due to /dev/disk/by-uuid and I'm losing the battle. First, the situation. I'm moving and resizing partitions from an 80G drive to a 500G drive. No issues there. The partitions setup is: /dev/sda1 WinXP /dev/sda2 Extended /dev/sda5 /home /dev/sda6 / /dev/sda7 swap /dev/sda8 /boot After moving and resizing the partitions windows boot fine and Arch boots until it gets to kinit and then throws a kernel panic. I have updated the disk/by-uuid labels in /boot/grub/menu.lst and in /etc/fstab, but still the kinit error. As far as my grub install goes, the system boot to the grub menu and it is reading /boot/grub/menu.lst because I can boot XP from the grub menu, but not boot Arch. Gurus... What to check? Throw a brother a bone.... Where else is the disk by-uuid stuff hidden? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
