Hi,
that's right, but where's my problem ? I've used the howto from sistina.com to 
convert my root-fs. On a non lvm root partition there are no problems. 
There's already the entry in /etc/fstab pointing to my root-fs on lvm. Also 
this is no problem. But when I changing lilo.conf (root=) to my root-fs on 
lvm I get this error. In the initrd there are all needed modules (RAID+lvm) 
and it find my volume groups but still I got this kernel panic. There's a 
/bin/sh, so why it is beefing ?

I'm very confused.
