[K12OSN] Kernel panic....

[Richard Mccue]

Had a nice surprise this morning...  My K12LTSP 4.2 (I think 4.2...  
It is the Fedora Core 4 version in any case) froze over the weekend,  
so I rebooted and during the boot up was confronted with the  
following error message:

Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.
Red Hat nash version 4.2.15 starting
   Reading all physical volumes. This may gtake a while...
   Found volume group "volGroup00" using matadata type lvm2
   2 logical volume(s) in volume group "volGroup00" now active
JBD: IO error reading journal superblock
EXT3-fs: erro lodaing journal.
mount: error 22 mounting ext3
ERROR opening /dev/console!!!!: 2
error dup2'ing fd of 0 to 0
error dup2'ing fd of 0 to 1
error dup2'ing fd of 0 to 2
switchroot: mount failed: 22
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill int!

I'm hoping to avoid a reinstall... Any ideas on how to get this up  
and running?

Thanks for your help.

Rich
