Hi,
I appears you are using initrd to boot and the new root file system
being changed to does not have /sbin/init (sysvinit) of /bin/sh. This
messages comes from init/main.c in the kernel. See below. Fix the rootfs.
Else send more information on compile options, command, environment and
somebody might be able to help

if (execute_command)
execve(execute_command,argv_init,envp_init);
execve("/sbin/init",argv_init,envp_init);
execve("/etc/init",argv_init,envp_init);
execve("/bin/init",argv_init,envp_init);
execve("/bin/sh",argv_init,envp_init);
panic("No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.");
