Here's the interesting part...
# Character devices
CONFIG_VT=y
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_SERIAL=y
CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS=y
CONFIG_UNIX98_PTY_COUNT=256
i've attached the whole config zipped, bit of a flood to post it all here :)
I'm not sure if this is totally irrilavant, but i just noticed that even as root i'm denied executing anything on my seperate /mnt/crypt, i've mounted it with
/dev/hdc1 /mnt/crypt ext2 defaults,noauto,users,loop=/dev/loop1,encryption=AES256 0 0
I was aware you can pass a no-exe option, however pretty sure its not default.
Thanks for any help,
Brad.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This looks very suspicious.
Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.

Can you post your kernel .config for kernel you are trying to boot. CONFIG_VT* are the most interesting parts. Mentioning kernel version may help too.
