Interesting set of events. I certainly cannot explain it.
Note that I personally wouldn't trust anyone other than Ingo's team to
give me an RT kernel that actually works. I don't know how to follow
when a distro kernel packager decides to add other things to the
kernel what those things are and whether they cause RT problems. For
that reason I personally run nothing but the kernel form the RT team
without any additions.
Glad you have things working.

P.S. - It is generally very easy to download and build the kernel
straight from Ingo. You might give that a try one of these days. - MWK
Going back to your original post it seems you never said what kernel
you were trying to boot and then having problems with. What kernel was
it?
Currently it seems you really didn't try to jump that far going from
2.6.24-18 to 2.6.24-23 which is likely why the booting part wasn't an
issue. Is that that your assessment?
Hi Mark,
The recap: I began by building and installing a 2.6.26 rt kernel. It
wouldn't load, just aborted with the UUID error. I decided to install an
Ubuntu-sanctified kernel, 2.6.24-18-rt, when it appeared in the repo.
Alas, I got the same error when I tried to load that one. After much
head-scratching, I gave up this morning and installed 2.6.24-23-rt, and
it works. AFAICT maybe I missed installing a modules package ? But that
doesn't explain why my home-brew kernel wouldn't load.
Best,
dp
