Try without initrd and with root pointing to a device file
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.5-1.358 ro root=/dev/hda2
boot
(or wherever is your root partition)
use:
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.5-1.358 ro root=/dev/hda2 single
(note the addition of single to go into single user mode)
That should get you booted and to a command prompt. Apparently, the kernel was
upgraded, but the postinstall failed to do it's bit and add itself to grub,
create the initrd etc. If you can get to the command prompt, run this:
[ -x /sbin/new-kernel-pkg ] && /sbin/new-kernel-pkg --mkinitrd --depmod
--install 2.6.5-1.358
[ -x /usr/sbin/hardlink ] && /usr/sbin/hardlink -c /lib/modules/2.6.* || :
That's taken straight from the RPM. It should add an entry to grub, create the
initrd, and you should be in good shape.
