--- Comment #3 from Kevin Wendzel 2010-11-23 16:55:14 UTC ---
Some additional information I've gained from personal debug:
First off, there is an error in my original post. It's a software RAID 1
configuration, not RAID 5.
I tried booting from the old kernel, and was able to get up to a login prompt,
but since it appears the update deleted my old modules directory in
/etc/modules, several key features (such as networking) no longer work.
Here is some additional output from some debug I attempted, if it helps:
