URGENT: Cannot boot after proxmox 3.4 upgrade to latest kernel

[Paolo_Bernardoni]

Hi, today i've upgraded one of my cluster node (supermicro) from 2.6.32-41 to 2.6.32-47 kernel version.
This upgrade is needed to later upgrade to 4.x proxmox version, is'nt it ?

During reboot i get the following screen error.

Any help ?

Thank you in advance.

UP .... Please Help Me !

Just use any older kernel for now from the grub menu when booting.
The latest kernel is not needed when updating to latest PVE.

I do not think so. I you do not use the latest kernel, you are not protected with latest security patches, even you use latest PVE.

If you use any kernel below 2.6.32-180 you are vulnerable to Dirty Cow.

 

[robhost]

Thats right, but the question was "This upgrade is needed to later upgrade to 4.x proxmox version, is'nt it ?" - and this is not the case.

 

[Paolo_Bernardoni]

No, is not needed to upgrade to 4.x proxmox version.
But i've installed my server from 4.3 proxmox cdrom, the controller run ok, the new kernel recognize it.
i've prefered to re-create a new cluster then migrate VM.
