New mkinitrd-6.0.6-1 allows reinstalling kernel-2.6.19-1.2889.fc7 to work, BUT ...

I was not able to boot any of the FC7 kernels before the latest 
mkinitrd-6.0.6-1 was installed. I removed the last rawhide kernel and 
then re-installed the kernel which booted except now I am seeing an 
error that I suppose is being outputted from /dev/sda drive. I now am 
wondering if this is the fault of the drive, a problem with the lvm 
which is now recognized as /dev/sda5 or the swap partition which is 
within the LVM. (/dev/hda5vol/LogVol01)
I do not see it listed with fdisk or with swapon -s. What happened to 
the LVM contained swap?

Thanks!
Jim
