15 I use the same kernel on my desktop and never had this problem.However I
16 have to say there's a big difference between the desktop and the
17 problematic PC. While the PC has a plain setup - only 1 hdd with only 1
18 partition (hda1), the desktop has its root on a 2-disk software raid0.
19 So the desktop mounts /dev/md0 preliminary, then xfs recovery takes
20 place if needed, and "switchroot /sysroot" is made at the end.

22 Hmmmm...witting this email I think an idea occurred to me...:)

24 What stops me make the same way of booting on the problematic PC? Well,
25 this would be a workaround again while I prefer a straight solution.
