serious ext2 module problem

I need to know which log file contains the start up info to tell you more about the problem, so if someone could tell me that.

If you are unable to get to the normal login prompt due to some initramfs/udev funkyness, then there won't be any log helping you.

But even without any further info, let me try my marvelous mind-reading technique: Add 'rootdelay=3' to the kernel commandline (Grub menu, 'E', etc...)

no I'm able to log in and type this to you.

How about running dmesg? Or use grep <expression you want> /var/log/*

I see this message under "::starting local filesystems". what log file displays this information. I know there HAS to be one.

I think those messages dont go into any log. The best thing I could do when I wanted to read those was to add a line

read

at the end of /etc/rc.local, so that after running all daemons, it would wait for an enter before it blanks the console. Somebody might have a better solution though...
