Hi,

While I was updating kernel in one of my RHEL 4 boxes, it prompted as 
below and then upon restart, the machine failed to boot up halting at the GRUB prompt. I was able to restore GRUB by "linux rescue" . But still, the system is not able to boot with the new kernel. It says "kernel panic"

Installing...
1:kernel-xenU-devel      ########################################### 100%
2:kernel                 ########################################### 100%

WARNING: No module BusLogic found for kernel 2.6.9-89.0.25.EL, 
continuing anyway
3:kernel-devel           ########################################### 100%

5:kernel-hugemem         ########################################### 100%

WARNING: No module BusLogic found for kernel 2.6.9-89.0.25.ELhugemem,

7:kernel-smp             ########################################### 100%

WARNING: No module BusLogic found for kernel 2.6.9-89.0.25.ELsmp, 
continuing anyway
8:kernel-smp-devel       ########################################### 100%
9:kernel-utils           ########################################### 100%
10:kernel-xenU            ########################################### 100%


Also, while I try to boot the new kernel, it says as below:

Unable to find volume group "disk"
no volume groups found

mount: error 6 mounting ext3 
mount: error 2 mounting none

I tried reinstalling Vmware tools, but of no avail. Also, tried using Buslogic driver for ESX 2.5 (as I couldn't find Buslogic driver for ESX 3.5) and that doesn't work either.

Do you have any clue how to fix this issue ?

Thanks
