> So I ran "depmod -a -v 2.6.8-1.603"

use :
depmod -a -e -F /boot/System.map-<new version> <new version>


Perhaps you already answered, but I try/insist again :

Boot with "<old version>" (it works :-)).

Check the kernel-<new version> package :
$ rpm -V kernel-<new version>
Check the latest mkinitrd :
$ rpm -V mkinitrd-4.1.14-1
Check udev (032-10 or 034-2) :
$ rpm -V udev-<version>

rebuild dependencies :
$ depmod -a -e -F /boot/System.map-<new version> <new version>

recreate initrd for the <new version> :
        mkinitrd /boot/initrd-<new version>.img <new version>

Check if grub.conf is correctly configured for the new kernel :
Something like : 
        title Fedora Core (<new version>)
                root (hd0,0)
                kernel /boot/vmlinuz-<new version> ro root=LABEL=/ quiet
                initrd /boot/initrd-<new version>.img

Carefully check you don't have "vmlinuz-<OLD version>" with "initrd-<NEW
version>.img

btw you can use modinfo to check if the ext3 module in initrd is the
good one :
$ modinfo ext3.ko
