From: Eero Volotinen on 16 Jun 2010 03:00 Looks like problem is on iDrac, because it is connected as scsi device. solution was: deattach iDrac after boot and fix the root device on grub commandline. -- Eero -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

There you go, Dell's virtual media stuff throwing it off. For the record, USB storage (along with parallel and serial IDE) is handled via the SCSI I/O subsystem, so it makes sense that the virtual media interface on the DRAC, which looks like a USB device, showed up as a SCSI device. Glad you got it working. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
