Thread: dist-upgrade help requested after kernel-panic


i have 5 webservers , failed our pci complaince. primary culprit apache running apache/2.2.14 (ubuntu) version. looking twords day's end, saw post added oneiric disto sources.list. added that, did upgrade, 300+ meg came through, not apache. followed apt-get dist-upgrade took time few more packages , done. rebooted , greeted kernel panic;
kernel panic - not syncing: vfs: unable mount root fs on unknown block (0,0)

looking around others have seen , booted off old kernel. did , things came , running fine. but, /etc/issue still shows 10.04lts existing one.

apt-get dist-upgrade shows;
reading package lists... done
building dependency tree
reading state information... done
calculating upgrade... done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 remove , 0 not upgraded.

looking @ souces.list, still show lucid ones also, commented out single oneiric.

looking @ grub.cfg see;

### begin /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###
menuentry 'ubuntu, linux 2.6.32-41-server' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
recordfail
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,1)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 572b9a32-f419-40dc-b81b-e7bade8ef4cb
linux /vmlinuz-2.6.32-41-server root=/dev/mapper/cfs2-root ro quiet
}
menuentry 'ubuntu, linux 2.6.32-22-server' --class ubuntu --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
recordfail
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,1)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 572b9a32-f419-40dc-b81b-e7bade8ef4cb
linux /vmlinuz-2.6.32-22-server root=/dev/mapper/cfs2-root ro quiet
initrd /initrd.img-2.6.32-22-server
}

2 questions come out of are;
1. how upgrade distribution version now? apt-get update , dist-upgrade show nothing new @ all. should change sources.list new one.
2. can use new kernel, adding lime initrd not listed (is reason kernel panic)
