Can't boot into Oracle Linux

901652Jan 10 2012 — edited Jan 13 2012

I recently had Oracle Linux 5.7 32-bit successfully installed as a Hyper-V Virtual Machine. Now I need to reinstall a new virtual machine. This time, the installation procedure appears to work, but when I reboot I get the following (copied by hand so may have typos) :

----------------
Red Hat nash version 5.1.19.6 starting-200.13.1.e5uek)'
Mounting proc filesystem
Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
Found volume group "VolGroup00" using metadata type lvm2
device-mapper: resume ioctl failed: Invalid argumentlGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb qu
Unable to resume VolGroup00-LogVol00 (253:0)
device-mapper: resume ioctl failed: Invalid argument
Unable to resume VolGroup00-LogVol01 (253:1)
2 logical volume(s) in volume group "VolGroup00" now active
Unable to access resume device (/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01)
mount: could not find fileystem '/dev/root'
setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /sys: No such file or directory
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
----------------

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong now? This is a major blocker for us as we have potential customers waiting to use the machine.
