it is failing to find the root device. If the root device is initrd then that should be found, since you are modifing the initrd you may add a few more commands to it. sleep 10 (ash should have a sleep command) and a few more echo's so you can confirm if the initrd is running or not. if the root device is elsewhere it is not finding that.
