Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello dear list! Can somebody help me to find out, why I get a kernel panic (init not found ) when I boot ? I can't understand why the kernel does not find init. The system I try to boot is brandnew-selfmade. I copied it via nfs to the hd. I ran lilo after I copied the files. The kernel and init resist on the second partition of the first scsi disc. The kernel includes scsi controller (aic7xxx) and disc support. I thought possibly the kernel tries to mount the wrong root, but there is just /dev/discs/disc0/part2 to mount, /dev/discs/disc0/part1 is swap and there are no more harddiscs. Passing init=/bin/sh results in the same message, although both files exist and have the x - bit set. Anyone any idea what's wrong ?
