What are you trying to do?

A kernel and initramfs have been specified.  The boot is working up
until the point where the initramfs wants to mount the root file
system.  Where is the root file system, you haven't attached any disks
to the guest?

If you want to test booting just into the initramfs then you probably
need to pass a distro-specific debugging option to stop the initramfs
before it switches to the root file system.  Sorry, I don't know
dracut.
