Redhat 8.0 Upgrade

[Allen Harpham <aharpham cconsultants com>]

Hi all,

I am having trouble with a upgrade to Redhat 8.0.  The upgrade went fine, but 
now when I try to boot the box, it hangs at the disk check.  When I did the 
upgrade, I opted to convert to ext3 and go from lilo to grub.

I have checked the grub.conf file and it appears to be ok:

#
default=0
timeout=10
slashimage= (hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-14)
     root (hd0,0)
     kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-14 ro root=/dev/hda1
     initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.18-14.img
#

The fstab appears to be ok:

#
/dev/hda1     /    ext3     grpquota 1 1
#

I have deleted any stale mtab files.

But when it boots, it says:

checking root filesystem.
/dev/hda1 is mounted.  e2fsck: cannot continue aborting.

It then goes to the filesystem recovery shell.

I have ran e2fsck on it manually and it check clean.  It appears to be 
mounting the partition read write before it runs e2fsck, but I can't find what 
causes it to do that.

Any Ideas?

Thanks, Allen
