Well, I rebooted and the kermel panick. Here are the last few lines before
the system halted:

	Freeing unused kernel memory: 412K freed
	Write protecting the kernel text: 2732K
	Write protecting the kernel read-only data: 1176K
	Faild to execute /iniit
	Kernel panic - not syncing: No Init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.

How do I pass the init option to the kernel and what should that option value be?

Thanks.
