Hi, Check whether you compiled the kernel with ext3 support enabled in form of modules. Also check you added correct "root" entry in /boot/grub/grub.conf while adding entry for your newly compiled kernel. If u compiled the kernel with ext3 support then u can also pass "root" parameter to kernel on command line in GRUB and this should help HTS, Aniruddha -----Original Message----- From: nitin panjwani [mailto:nitin_rpr@yahoo.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 8:19 AM To: kernelnewbies@nl.linux.org Subject: Kernel Panic: INIT not found Hi All, I was tryi g to upgrade my laptop to 2.4.19. For this I compiled and performed the following steps: make oldconfig make dep make clean make bzImage make modules make modules_install /sbin/mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.4.19 2.4.19 cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/bzImage-2.4.19 updated grub for new image and and initrd everything went well, but while loading the kernel, I got the following error: 'Kernel paninc: No init found, try passing init= option to kernel' before this I saw some messgaing showing problem with journaling . Like: ............. /lib/ext3.o unresolved symobol journal_load .................. ................... ERROR: /bin/inismod exited abnormally! IF I am right then it seems, it is not able load the module for EXT3... What is the easist&quickest way to solve this problem and make the kernel working ?
