I get similar messages on 2.4.2 and 2.4.2-ac7 :

...
ACPI: Core Subsystem version [20010208]
ACPI: Subsystem enabled
ACPI: System firmware supports: C2 C3
ACPI: plvl2lat=10 plvl3lat=20
ACPI: C2 enter=143 C2 exit=35
ACPI: C3 enter=858 C3 exit=71
ACPI: Not using ACPI idle
ACPI: System firmware supports: S0 S1 S5
ACPI: If experiencing system slowdowns, pass acpi=no-idle #FROM MEMORY
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 232k freed
Kernel  panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.

The solution was to pass acpi=no-idle on the kernel command line. The same
configuration worked fine with 2.4.1
